This design study describes the feasibility of replacing the existing ORIC coils with superconducting ones. The mechanical design is described and illustrated. Conductor and winding scheme is described with the parameters itemized. Thermal analysis is given. The design is quite conservation, requires no unusual technology, and should result in a coil system with good reliability and durability. The operating regime of ORIC will be considerably extended, and running costs should be reduced.
