Abstract

The development of superconducting magnets for fusion at the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) is described. The objective of the project is the Fusion Experimental Reactor (FER) which will be constructed with superconducting toroidal and poloidal coils. For toroidal coils, JAERI has already developed the 8 T Japanese LCT coil and five other large coils (one NbTi and four Nb 3Sn coils, from 7 T to 11 T) for the Cluster Test Programme. For poloidal coils, JAERI has developed three 30–50 kA pulsed conductors. In addition to coil development, cryogenic technology and structural material development are also in progress.
