Abstract :
FAST (Fusion Advanced Studies Torus), the Italian proposal of a satellite facility to ITER, is a compact tokamak (R0 = 1.82 m, a = 0.64 m, triangularity δ = 0.4) able to investigate non linear dynamics effects of α-particle behavior in burning plasmas and to test technical solutions for the first wall/divertor directly relevant for ITER and DEMO. Currently, ENEA is investigating the feasibility of a superconducting solution for the magnet system. This paper focuses on the analysis of the TF magnets thermal behavior. In particular, utilizing only the room available in the resistive design and referring to one of the most severe scenario envisaged for FAST, the minimum temperature margin in the coil has been calculated for a thermal load distribution on winding and cable jacket due to nuclear heating only.
