Pool Boiling
● Low Tech. ● Poor Mech. Strength● Low Insulation Voltage
Forced Cooling Conduction Cooling
● Good Heat Removal ● High Insulation Voltage● Severe Pressure Drop
● Excellent Mech. Strength● poor Heat Removal
8Windings of Forced Cooling System
Current path and coolant path are not independent each other.
9For Poor Heat Removal of Conduction Cooling
Stabilization of High Temp. Super-Conductor (YBCO)
is designed to be done with the enthalpy of the YBCO material itself, rather than by cooling with supercritical helium against the disturbances such as movement etc.
Heat capacity :
500 mJ/cm3 for the temperature range between 33 and 35 K

Parameters of winding packs
Each coil has three (higher, middle and lower field) winding packs installed into the coil case..
To reduce stress (or strain) on the winding and to control the occurrence of flux jumps, three slots are machined into the coil case in which each winding pack is installed.

13Summary
● CS-less (Low A) concept leads to lightweight Tokamak.
● Conduction cooling method leads to lightweight TFC.
● High temp. superconductor meets conduction cooling.
● Cs-less & iron core concept may meet the requirements for quick Ip control and TFC mechanical strength.
