ARIES AT Project Meeting - Princeton, NJ 18 Sept 00 1 ARIES-AT Toroidal Field (TF) and Poloidal Field (PF) Coils Tom Brown, Fred Dahlgren, Phil Heitzenroeder (PPPL) September 18, 2000
ARIES AT Project Meeting - Princeton, NJ 18 Sept 00 2 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 Project Meeting - Princeton, NJ 18 Sept 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%.
ARIES AT Project Meeting - Princeton, NJ 18 Sept 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 J sc =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.
