Toroidal field coil system for ''starfire'', a preliminary assessment

  • 1. Gen At Co, San Diego, Calif

Description

An important element of the STARFIRE tokamak reactor is the 12-coil superconducting toroidal field coil system which is required to generate 5.6 tesla at the 7.0 m plasma axis, with a peak-to-peak field ripple of 1% (maximum). Internal spatial requirements dictate a clear bore about 15-1/2 m high * 10 m wide, resulting in a total stored energy of 67 GJ
