Abstract :
The aims of the toroidal field (TF) model coil are to test the manufacturing feasibility of the ITER TF magnet concepts, to assess the reliability of the fully integrated system by dedicated testing and to qualify the quality assurance and the testing methods. The 3.8 m long racetrack shaped TFMC will be tested in the TOSKA facility at Karlsruhe in a configuration using the Euratom LCT Coil to provide in-plane and out-of-plane loads, relevant to the ITER coils
