Analysis of quench-vent pressures for present design of ITER TF coils
An analysis of pressure and temperature rise versus time during a quench is done here for one of the present TF coil designs. Hand calculations using worksheets give a fair approximation of such parameters as pressure and temperature in the conductor, stored energy consumed by the quench, amount of vented helium, etc. The purpose is to provide design information for conductor design before a more accurate computer analysis is completed and to serve as a check against other analyses. An additional purpose is to provide insights into the quench vent process that may aid the designer of protective devices. 3 figs., 3 tabs.
