This results in a compact, high-power-density reactor with copper (instead of superconducting) coils.
Helium-cooled superconducting coils, typically made of an alloy of niobium and titanium encased in copper cladding, create magnetic fields ten times stronger than similar-size permanent magnets can muster.
The scientists propose to place superconducting coils on the sides of a spacecraft.
The following paper presents PKDELIS [ECR HTS source using superconducting coils, French Patent No. FR98 06579].
The tokamak deploys a powerful magnetic field to suspend and compress the hydrogen plasma using an electromagnet made of superconducting coils of a niobium tin alloy.
The aim was to find the best candidates for superconducting coils for fusion reactors.
The iron-dominated magnets with superconducting coils have to be used in this application.
The "pentagonal" magnet system of the machine encompasses 50 non-planar and 20 planar superconducting coils with sophisticated support structure.
The use of low temperature superconducting coils 'LTC' has a real advantage when it comes to electrical power.
Superconducting coils will be enclosed in a cryostat; all other parts of the cyclotron will be warm.
The central solenoid (CS) of the KSTAR consists of four pairs of superconducting coils compressed axially by preloading structures.
