Transient thermo-structural and static magnetic characteristics of 1:1 prototype JET ELM control coils
Fusion Engineering and Design(2017)
Abstract
3D transient thermo-structural analyses and steady state magnetic field analyses of 1:1 prototyped JET Edge Localized Mode (ELM) coils have been carried out. Temperature distribution within the magnet winding as well as the temperature evolution have also been simulated as a function of pulsed transport currents in both large and small ELM coils as per the operational scenarios. The induced thermal stresses along with the shear stress components acting on the winding elements have also been analyzed. The deformations caused by thermal stresses have been calculated for the case, the conductor bundle and the insulation layers within the coils. In addition to thermo-structural analyses, steady state magnetic field analyses have also been carried out in the current carrying ELM coils. These values have been compared with the experimental values. The experimentally obtained values matches well with those obtained in simulations indicating that the prototyped ELM coils can operate successfully in JET operational scenarios. Additionally, the R & D and technologies developed in the context of JET ELM coils have also been validated with the magnet performances experimentally.
