Abstract :
A forced flow cooled NbTi-conductor with a nominal critical current of 15 kA at 8 T has been developped jointly by KfK and Vacuumschmelze. It will be used in the EURATOM coil for the Large Coil Task. The design principles are described and the main parameters are presented. Major part of the paper is devoted to the description of the manufacturing of the conductor and of its constituents. A survey on the testing of the conductor and its components is given.
