Description

An ideal current distribution in the air-core transformer coils is obtained using variation principle. Climbing mountain method is utilized for optimizing the dimension and position of the real coils. Not only can the requirement of minimizing the stray field in the plasma region be guaranteed, but also integer turns for the coil can be realized. The latter brings a significant convenience to engineering
