A.5.1.3.2 Central Solenoid Model
Figs A.5.12–A.5.14 illustrate the key features of the thermal–hydraulic model
for the ITER central solenoid. CS is formed with six identical modules (sub-
coils) all with 20 DP wound with the Nb Sn CICC. The pancakes inside a CS
3
section are cooled in parallel. Heat loads are modelled individually for each
of the 240 CS pancakes using a quasi-3D modelling with regard to the design
specification and heat loading.
The interturn and interpancake heat transfer is simulated as 2D non-
6
stationary heat conduction over five cross-sections meshed with ∼3 10
nodes).
