The ITER Thermal Shields (TS) consist of actively cooled stainless steel panels. Their role is to minimise the radiation heat load from warm components, such as the Vacuum Vessel (VV) and the cryostat, hence contributing to insulating the magnet system operating at 4.5 K. [...]

Metallurgical assessment of large size tensioning components for the precompression structure of the ITER central solenoid
/ Sgobba, Stefano (CERN) ; Lourenço, Sandra Sophie (CERN) ; Santillana, Ignacio Aviles (CERN) ; Libeyre, Paul (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Reagan, Travis (Oak Ridge, U.S. ITER) ; Wooten, Cain (Oak Ridge, U.S. ITER)
• An adapted fabrication and processing route including vacuum induction melting (VIM) and electroslag remelting (ESR) or vacuum arc remelting (VAR), combined with hot transformation steps involving where applicable redundant multidirectional forging, was successfully applied to the production of inconel 718 large size tensioning components for the precompression structure of the ITER central solenoid. • Material production involved a wide variety of gauges and product shapes, whose final properties are very consistent thanks to a repeatable and well mastered production process.

Design Optimization and Assessment of Fabrication of ITER Central Solenoid Twin Box Joints
/ Santillana, Ignacio Aviles (CERN) ; Guinchard, Michael (CERN) ; Lourenço, Sandra Sophie (CERN) ; Motschmann, Fritz (CERN) ; Sacristan de Frutos, Oscar (CERN) ; Sgobba, Stefano (CERN) ; Bruton, Andrew (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Gaxiola, Enrique (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Libeyre, Paul (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Schild, Thierry (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) et al.
The ITER Central Solenoid (CS) will be one of the world's largest and most powerful pulsed superconducting electromagnet ever built; at an approximate weight of 1300 tons and a total height of 18 m consisting of a stack of six electrically independent 4.1 m diameter modules. In order to electrically connect the CS with the feeder busbars, 12 twin box joints are used to assure an efficient high current transfer while avoiding excessive AC losses. [...]

The Effect of Specific Manufacturing Characteristics on PF ITER Full-Size Joint Performance
/ Pison, Pilar Fernandez (Carlos III U., Madrid) ; Langeslag, Stefanie A E (CERN) ; Santillana, Ignacio Aviles (CERN) ; Dimitrijevic, Alexander (CERN) ; Sgobba, Stefano (CERN) ; Ilyin, Yury (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Simon, Fabrice (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance) ; Lim, Byung Su (BIAM, St Paul lez Durance)
The development of new generation superconducting magnets for fusion research, such as the ITER experiment, is largely based on coils wound from so-called “Cable-In-Conduit” Conductors (CICCs). CICCs consist of various types of stainless steel jackets, densely filled with compacted superconducting strands, which are cooled by supercritical helium. [...]

The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) is the upgrade of the world’s largest particle collider; it will allow the full exploitation of the LHC potential and its operation beyond 2025. An essential part of the HL-LHC project are the Crab Cavities, that are particle de-flecting SRF cavities of non-axisymmetric shape made of bulk ultra-high purity Nb. [...]

Secondary Phases Quantification and Fracture Toughness at Cryogenic Temperature of Austenitic Stainless Steel Welds for High-Field Superconducting Magnets

The ITER magnet system is based on the “cable-in-conduit” conductor concept, which consists of various types of stainless steel jackets filled with superconducting strands. The jackets provide high strength and fracture toughness to counteract the high stress imposed by, amongst others, electromagnetic loads at cryogenic temperature. [...]

The Central Solenoid (CS) is the backbone of the ITER magnet system. It consists of six independent coils held together by a vertical pre-compression structure that must react tensile loads and provide sufficient preload to maintain coil-to-coil contact during all stages of plasma operation. [...]
