Abstract
Two forced-flow cooled NbTi superconducting coils (TOKI-TF, PF) have been designed and fabricated. The helical coil (TOKI-TF) is a 1/4-scale model of the Large Helical Device (LHD). It has a major radius of 0.9 m, a minor radius of 0.25 m, and a pitch number of 4. Nominal current and maximum field were designed to be 8 kA and 2.8 T, respectively. Another coil (TOKI-PF) was fabricated for the demonstration of LHD poloidal field coils. It consists of two double pancakes with an inner radius of 0.6 m and an outer radius of 0.82 m. The nominal current of 25 kA simulates that of LHD poloidal field coils. Cable-in-conduit-type conductors were used for the both coils. The test facility was also constructed with a vacuum vessel, a liquid nitrogen shield, 30-kA power leads, a heat exchanger, and cryogenic supports. Design concepts and details are presented.
