Abstract
The DPC-TJ coil experiment was successfully carried out at the Japan A tomic Research Institute (JAERI) in 1991. This coil was developed by T oshiba and JAERI in collaboration to demonstrate the realization of su perconducting coils for fusion with a high average current density of 40 A mm-2. The DPC-TJ coil was charged up to its rated current of 24 k A (40 A mm-2) at 7.6 T without quench in the DPC test facility. Therea fter electromagnetic performance was tested by measuring I(c) and T(cs ) values, and the critical current at 12 T was estimated at 41 kA. Man y electromagnetic results were obtained, which are necessary for the d esign of future fusion machines such as the International Thermonuclea r Experimental Reactor (ITER).
