Abstract
A finite-element technique has been applied to the dynamic analysis of magnetic field configurations produced by a passive conducting shell in a fusion device. The relevance of the problem in the design of reverse field pinch (RFP) magnetic fusion experiments is pointed out, and the numerical method developed for this kind of applications is described. The technique has been applied to the design of the poloidal field system of RFX, a large RFP device now under construction. The most significant results of the analysis and a discussion of the field control possibilities are reported.File in questo prodotto:
