For large scale magnets wound with cable-in-conduit conductors, the safe operation of the
joints is of paramount importance to guarantee adequate reliability and stability margin of …

This paper provides an uncertainty analysis for current distribution measurements based on
local magnetic field measurements (eg, via Hall probes) or on magnetic flux measurements …

This article deals with the measurement of current distribution through the rail cross section
of an electromagnetic rail launcher. A measurement approach based on a loop system …

The Poloidal Field Conductor Insert (PFCI) of the International Thermonuclear Experimental
Reactor (ITER) has been designed in the EU and is being manufactured at Tesla …

The complex phenomena occurring in superconducting cables involve thermal,
electromagnetic, fluid-dynamic and mechanical problems that require multiphysics analysis …

Due to the unavoidable construction tolerances and imperfections in the assembly of coils,
the actual magnetic field of manufactured magnets differs from the design one. Depending …

In the framework of the development of High Temperature Superconducting current leads
(HTSCL), one demonstrator was tested at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe (FZK) in 2004 …

Bus Bar III (BBIII) is a curvilinear NbTi full-size ITER-type multistrand superconducting cable
7 m long, tested in 2004 at Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, Germany. The sample was …

The Toroidal Field Coils (TFC) are subject to mandatory geometrical tolerances constraints
for acceptance by ITER Organization. As a consequence, pre-assembly tests are foreseen to …

As the test of the PFCI is foreseen in 2006 at JAERI Naka, Japan, it is essential to consider in
detail the lessons learned from the short NbTi sample tests, as well as the issues left open …
