  • Abstract
    The construction of C-MOD is described briefly with an emphasis on thermal considerations. The temperature limits for the various components and the overall performance requirements for the temperature control system are discussed. The design of the temperature control system hardware and software is presented in some detail. Instrumentation for the poloidal and toroidal field coils is described
