Abstract :
A description is given of EDDYTOR, an eddy-current analysis and evaluation code system for tokamak reactors. The EDDYTOR system is able to calculate eddy currents, electromagnetic forces, stress and deformation, and plasma position and control properties. The program was designed to operate on an engineering work station utilizing a commercial CAE (computer-aided engineering) package. It has been shown to save on design time and to maintain overall design consistency, since a comprehensive design analysis can be performed within the same system
