The control of the current, position and shape of an elongated cross-section tokamak plasma is complicated by the instability of the plasma vertical position. In this case the control becomes a significant problem when saturation of the power supplies is c ...
The low aspect ratio of the mega amp spherical tokamak (MAST) allows differentiation between different forms of the H-mode threshold scaling. With optimized fuelling using inboard puffing, and a connected double null divertor (DND) magnetic configuration, ...
Apparatus for retaining magnetic particles within a segment of a flow-through cell during flow of a fluid through the cell. The apparatus comprises (a) an electrical current source (12) (b) an electromagnet (13) having a winding (14) connected to the curre ...
Within the framework of the European Fusion Programme a FSJS has been designed and manufactured by European Industry using PF coil NbTi superconductor manufactured and supplied by the Russian Federation as part of the R&D for the PF Conductor Insert (PFCI) ...
The toroidal Field Conductor Insert (TFCI) coil was tested at 46 kA in the 13 T background magnetic field generated by the Central Solenoid Model Coil. The single layer TFCI coil uses a Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductor in a Titanium jacket. The object of t ...
The reduction of static heat load in superconducting magnet systems is of great importance because of reduction of refrigeration power and operational costs. The major elements that determine the heat load are the current leads. The use of high temperature ...
A number of pressure drop measurements have been carried out at CRPP on a section of ITER cable-in-conduit conductor, using pressurized water at room temperature. The longitudinal friction factor is deduced for the strand bundle area and the central hole. ...
Prototype conductors for the ITER magnets have been tested extensively in the SULTAN facility at CRPP in the last decade. The in-depth characterization of the high current carrying conductors provided a valuable feedback in the design, with performance opt ...
Two Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit conductors have been manufactured with identical non-Cu cross sections and the stabilizer either included in the Nb3Sn composite or partly segregated as copper wires. The two conductors are series connected and wound as a bifilar ...
A 13 T-46 kA Nb3Al conductor with steel jacket has been developed in the framework of ITER-EDA. The thermal strain will appear on the Nb3Al strands after heat treatment, when the steel jacket is used because of difference in their thermal expansion. The co ...
