Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED FOR THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THE MAGNET SYSTEM OF THE FUSION ENGINEERING DEVICE. THE UNUSUAL SPECIFICATION OF AN INTERNALLY COOLED CABLED NIOBIUM TITANIUM SUPERCONDUCTOR AT A MAXIMUM FIELD OF 10TESLA, COUPLED WITH HIGH AC LOSSES AND HIGH NEUTRON AND GAMMA HEATING IN THE TOROIDAL FIELD COILS LED TO THE SELECTION OF A COOLING SYSTEM WITH SUPERFLUID HELIUM AT THE INLET TO THE TOROIDAL FIELD COILS. THE IMPLICATIONS FOR THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM WERE NOT UNFAVORABLE AND SHOWED SEVERAL FEATURES OF INTEREST. AMONG THE FAVORABLE COMPARISONS WITH CONVENTIONAL SUPERCRITICAL FLOW SYSTEMS WAS REDUCED ENTROPY GENERATION IN THE COIL DUE TO PRESSURE DROPS. (CRYOG. INF. REP., US., 20, N.5, 1982/05, 14, 15.
