TEXT energy-storage system

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6825747
The TEXT Energy Storage System, designed by the Center for Electromechanics (CEM), consists of four 50-MJ, 125-V homopolar generators and their auxiliaries and is designed to power the toroidal and poloidal field coils of TEXT on a two-minute duty cycle. The four 50-MJ generators connected in series were chosen because they represent the minimum cost configuration and also represent a minimal scale up from the successful 5.0-MJ homopolar generator designed, built, and operated by the CEM.
