About the First 6 Toroidal Field Coils and 2 Poloidal Field Coils Completed by EU for ITER

The plasma confinement of the International Tokamak Experimental Rector (ITER) is provided by the magnetic field generated by 18 toroidal field (TF) coils while 6 poloidal field (PF) coils and 6 central solenoid modules have the function to drive, shape and pre-heat the plasma. Fusion for Energy (F4E), the European Domestic Agency for ITER, is responsible for the supply of 10 TF coils and 5 PF coils to the ITER project. The PF coils utilize NbTi Cable-in-Conduit-Conductor (CICC) and have different diameters between 8 and 24 meters and a weight up to 400 tons. So far two EU PF coils, PF5 and PF6, have been completed. PF6 has been manufactured by the Institute of Plasma Physics Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP) under a collaboration agreement with F4E. The other 4 PF coils are being produced by EU at the ITER site by a cluster of suppliers managed and supervised by F4E. All PF coils will be completed by 2023. The TF coils utilize a Nb 3 Sn conductor. So far six TF coil have been completed, of which five delivered to ITER and one will be delivered within 2021. The remaining TF coils will be delivered by end of 2022. We will report on the main aspects of the coils completed so far, on the main results obtained together with some statistical analysis as well as on the status of the remaining coils.
