ARIES AT TF and PF Design The ARIES AT TF and

PF systems are based on YBCO high temperature SC.

The coil configuration permits full replacement of the blanket/shield modules.

Design is based on Ron Miller’s strawman ver. 306 & Chuck Kessel’s optimized PF system.


ARIES-AT Configuration Features

• High T SC TF

• No structure between TF outer legs:

• Permits blanket/shield/ divertor module removal.

TF Coil Case & Lead Details

• One coil case (shown) is configured for power leads.

•The other 15 coils are configured for coil to coil connections.

Exploded View of Case Assembly

Total Weight of a Single TF coil is 64 metric tons


TF Coil Winding Double pancakes will be wound into the coil case channel via

two spools which are sized to limit conductor strain to <0.2%.


TF Superconductor

•2 pancakes per coil; 20 turns per pancake

•Each turn has 20 x 3 “sub turns” for a total of 2400 turns/coil.

•I / sub turn = 9600 kAt/2400 t = 4 kA

•Jsc=100 kA/sq. cm (10 micron thick film layer assumed). Strain limit 0.2%.

•Superconductor is conduction cooled by case; case is cooled by LN2.

PF - Radial Fields

Peak Radial Field 9.0 TNeed to re-orient the conductor plane to horizontal.

Peak Vertical Field is8.7 T for PF-14 and 6.9 T @ the conductor.

We will need to reduce thecurrent Density in PF-14.

Peak Radial Field is only7.7 T for PF 12 & 13 and 5.9 T @ the conductor.


PF - Vertical Fields

Peak Radial Field is only7.7 T for PF 12 & 13 and 5.9 T @ the conductor.

•Stresses are OK: allowable is ~600 MPa. based on 0.2% strain limit of SC ,

•We still have to update drawings to coil & support dimensions used in

analyses.
