  • Abstract
    The ITER poloidal field (PF) coil system consists of a central solenoid coil and seven ring coils. The PF coils must provide the magnetic fields to confine the plasma and control its position during the various phase of operation including plasma initiation, ramp-up, burn and shut-down. They contribute the magnetic flux change to ramp up the plasma current and a part of the flux change to maintain it. This paper describes the requirements and the conceptual design for the seven outer PF coils
