High-Uniformity Calculation Method of Four-Coil Configuration in Large-Caliber Magnetic Field Immunity Testing System

Abstract

Power electronic equipment regulated by International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) must pass the relevant steady-state magnetic field immunity test. The main body of magnetic field immunity test is magnetic field generator coil. Through mathematical derivation in this article, the magnetic field calculation formulas of four-coil configuration under ideal and actual models are obtained. The traditional method of magnetic field performance calculation is compared with the general formula method under the ideal model. A global parameter optimization method based on Lagrange Multiplier by Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions is proposed to obtain the coil parameters of high-uniformity magnetic field. The magnetic field distribution in the uniform zone is revealed by the finite-element method. The model analysis is proven to be correct and effective by experimental results. The research of this article provides a practical scheme for the coil design with high magnetic field and high-quality uniformity.
