A large superconducting magnet for fusion research
Description
Fusion technology will require superconducting fields of moderately larger working volume and of moderately higher field strength (by several orders of magnitude) than previously designed. A novel design of a toroidal magnet that accommodates the large forces generated by such a magnet, was previously reported. This paper describes modifications to the coil shape required when the toroidal magnet is comprised of discrete coils as well as a segment of a toroidal system that is being constructed and, when tested, will verify the reported prescription. The coil segment has a bore approximately 1.0 m x 1.3 m and will be tested for a maximum field of 100,000 G. 7 refs
