Abstract
Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute(JAERI) has been developing 13-T , 40-kA conductors for the ITER Central Solenoid Scalable Model Coil. The conductors are composed of high performance (NbTi)3Sn strands and titanium conduit. In this development work, 15-km length strand fabric ation from a 100-kg billet, chrome plating, cabling of 675 or 768 stra nds, jacketing of titanium conduit, and so on were conducted by two ma ss production lines. In this paper, several test results are reported such as critical current measurements of full-scale conductors and AC loss measurements of sub-scale conductors.
