| Research Abstract |
The Large Helical Device will have superconducting helical coils and poloidal coils and operated at cryogenic temperature. In order to design and fabricate the LHD, the field research of a cryogenic device technology for large superconducting apparatus has been carried out as a joint research program. The countries researched are USA, CIS (Old name : USSR), Germany and France. The main research field has been classified into the following 5 large groups.
(1) The total systems of large superconducting facilities such as Superconducting Tokamak Device (T-15) in CIS and Superconducting Collider (HERA) in Germany were researched. And the operation system was discussed.
(2) The development status in the forced flow type and pool boiling type superconductors were researched, because the forced flow type superconductor will be used for poloidal coils and pool boiling type will be done for helical coils in the LHD. In foreign countries, the forced flow type superconductors are mainly planned to apply on large superconducting facilities, because its electric insulation is easier and the high strength can be expected. But at the same time, it is clear that there are many problems to be developed such as the insulation mechanism, reducing the heat input and consist materials to support the superconductors against large electro-magnetic force.
(3) The large cryogenic system of TORE-SUPRA in France was researched, where the super fluid helium cooling system was in operation. And many items including the element technology was discussed.
(4) The cryogenic materials and structures are researched. The austenitic stainless steel is available for the LHD, but the mechanical properties of weldments, especially the fracture toughness, must be ensured.
(5) The long range operation records of large cryogenic systems are very few in the world. Most of the initial troubles in Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Fermi National Laboratory have been observed during 2 years after being in operation.
