Engineering design and construction of the S-1 spheromak coil systems

  • 1. Princeton Univ, NJ, USA

Description

The Spheromak coil systems consist of a torus-shaped flux core of 1 m. major radius located within the vacuum vessel, and three pairs of euqilibrium field (EF) coils located outside the vessel. The engineering design and fabrication methods of these coil systems are the topics of this pper. Toroidal and poloidal currents are induced by the PF (poloidal field) and TF (toroidal field) windings, located in the flux core. The windings are made of water-cooled copper cables located in grooves in and around a G-10 epoxy-glass torus form
