Design of demountable joint for Doublet III toroidal field coil

Description

The design criteria for General Atomic Company's Doublet III Tokamak specifies a demountable joint at the top of the toroidal field coil (B-coil). This joint allows assembly of the vacuum vessel, electric field coils (E-coils), field-shaping coils (F-coils), and supporting structure without any joints in these components. The overall design and assembly sequence of Doublet III is therefore critically dependent on proper functioning of the B-coil demountable joint. The selected interlocking finger design incorporates sufficient strength and electrical conductivity to permit operation at a toroidal field of up to 40 kG for 105 cycles with an adequate margin of safety. The finger joint can be manufactured using standard machining tolerances and procedures and can be assembled and disassembled with relative ease and rapidity
