Critical current of ITER model coil degraded with the increase of electromagnetic force. Analysis based on results of the experiments in which periodic transverse load is artificially applied to single strand showed that periodic bending of the strand by transverse load caused this degradation. However, since the experiments were carried out under a certain condition, general relation between transverse load and critical current was not obtained. We have therefore developed a numerical… CONTINUE READING
