Abstract. A large pulsed coil (CS Model Coil) with a stored energy of 640MJ
was developed and its fabrication is now being completed. In addition, three
Insert Coils for different purposes are also being built. The objectives of
the CS Model Coil Testing are to demonstrate the technology to generate 13T
with the operating current of 46kA, to measure the pulsed operation
performance and to validate the engineering design of the Central Solenoid
Coil of the ITER. Two of the Insert Coils are tested to demonstrate the
performance of 13-T, 40-kA
Nb3Sn and
Nb3Al conductors for the
ITER toroidal field coil. For these testings, Japan Atomic Energy Research
Institute has constructed the CS Model Coil Test Facility which can charge
the coils up to the power of 250MVA under a 800-g/s, 4.5-K supercritical
helium circulation in a vacuum tank with a diameter of 6.5m and a height of
9.5m.
