Description

This paper describes the results of a study to explore the design space of superconducting ignition devices. Parametric studies were performed with the revised FEDC Tokamak Systems Code to determine the sensitivity of performance and cost to variations in confinement model, aspect ratio, maximum field at the toroidal field (TF) coils, and plasma elongation. The authors discuss the methodology employed and the implication of the results obtained
