Ln/sub 2/ cooled magnet for the FT-U Tokamak: three dimensional stress analysis and reliability problems

  • 1. EURATOM, Rome, Italy

Description

The FT-Upgrade Tokamak in order to accomplish its aims has to operate its magnet under high stresses for a large number of shots. In order to assess the feasibility of a magnet capable of this performance, a three-dimensional finite element stress analysis has been carried out and a material cryogenic test program has been started. The main results of the stress analysis and the preliminary experimental results are illustrated. 5 refs
