Deals magnet concept: applications and development

J. Powell, S.Y. Hsieh, J. Lehner

Abstract

The important highlights of the applination of the DEALS (Demountable Externally Anchored Low Stress) magnet system to MFE Tokamak devices are presented. Benefits of the concept for the construction of superconducting toroidal field coils are outlined. Emphasis is placed on the application of DEALS to a high field collisional Tokamak device and various design parameters for such a device and the corresponding DEALS coils are listed. An engineering Tokamak of PLT size is described in which the DEALS concept could be thoroughly evaluated. Design parameters for two engineering Tokamak concepts are given. A proposed development program, whose aim is to evaluate and prove the DEALS idea, and if successful, implement it as fast as possible in MFE designs, is outlined.
