Summary

THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE THE DESIGN, VERIFICATION TESTS, AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE JAPANESE TEST COIL FOR THE LARGE COIL TASK (LCT). THE JAPANESE LCT COIL WAS DESIGNED TO BE A POOL-COOLED, FULLY-STABILIZED COIL WITH AN OPERATING CURRENT OF 10,220 A AT 8 T. NEW ADVANCES IN SUPERCONDUCTING COIL TECHNOLOGY WERE ACQUIRED, SUCH AS MECHANICALLY AND CHEMICALLY TREATED CONDUCTOR SURFACES THAT HAVE HEAT TRANSFER ABOUT FOUR TIMES GREATER THAN USUAL. NEW FABRICATION TECHNIQUES WERE DEVELOPED TO WIND THE LARGE-CURRENT CONDUCTOR INTO A MECHANICALLY RIGID COIL AND TO CONSTRUCT A TOTALLY STABLE LARGE COIL.
