TL;DRAbstract

General Atomic is engaged in a program to determine the suitability of alloyed NbTi, cooled with He II for high field toroidal field coils for use in fusion reactors. We have completed a design study on full scale Fusion Engineering Device coils at 10 T, and have measured some stability parameters of the proposed cable conductor. A 40 cm bore test coil is almost completed. This coil contains about 150 kg of cabled conductor with an operating current of 10 kA at 11 T. The superconductor is NbTiTa and the coil will be tested in both saturated and subcooled superfluid at the Livermore High Field Test Facility in 1982.
