Abstract

Eighteen error field correction coils (EFCCs) consisting of copper conductor and epoxy resin are installed in the vacuum vessel of JT-60SA in order to correct magnetic fields caused by manufacturing and installation errors of superconducting coils. The EFCCs are supported by pedestals made of stainless steel 316 L, and the pedestal has spring bars made of NCF625. The pedestals need to withstand electromagnetic force induced by EFCC current and magnetic field during plasma operations. They also need to allow relative displacement between the EFCC and the vacuum vessel during baking operations caused by the temperature difference between the vacuum vessel of 200 °C and EFCC of 40 °C. Diameter of the spring bars and connection structure for fixing the spring bars were designed through FEM analysis.
