Its maximum plasma current is designed as 1 MA with a discharge time longer than 100 ms. Its major radius is 1.4 m and its minor radius is 0.55 m. One of the most important problems in the magnet system design is how to reduce the TF magnetic field ripple and error field. A new wedge- shaped TF coil is put forward for the KTX device and its electromagnetic properties are compared with those of rectangular-shaped TF coils. The error field B,I/Bt of wedge-shaped TF coils with 6.4 degrees is about 6% as compared with 8% in the case of a rectangular-shaped TF coil. Besides, the wedge-shaped TF coils have a lower magnetic field ripple at the edge of the plasma region, which is smaller than 7.5% at R=1.83 m and 2% at R=l.07 m. This means that the tokamak operation mode may be feasible for this device when the plasma area becomes smaller, because the maximum ripple in the plasma area of the tokamak model is always required to be smaller than 0.4%. Detailed analysis of the results shows that the structure of the wedged-shape TF coil is reliable. It can serve as a reference for TF coil design of small aspect ratio RFPs or similar torus devices.展开更多
