Magnet Safety Test Facility
The UK Government has given UKAEA the goal to maintain the UK’s position as a world leader in fusion research and development. As part of this a facility is being considered to provide fully representative fusion power plant operational conditions under which magnet safety systems can be tested. Large superconducting magnets of the type used in fusion plants store an enormous amount of energy, up to tens of gigajoules. It is critical for the safety and availability of future fusion plants that they are equipped wit...
