Recent progress on the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) magnet systems

The ITER magnet systems are composed of twenty toroidal field (TF) coils, a Central Solenoid (CS), nine poloidal field (PF) coils, and sixteen Correction Coils (CC). This paper summarizes the features of the design with emphasis on recent design changes and progress in the magnet R and D program. The latter has focused on the production of full scale conductor, which is essentially complete, and manufacture of CS and TF Model Coils, which are well underway
