Power supply for the superconducting TF magnet system of EAST

摘要

The experiment advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST) has a high stored energy superconducting toroidal field (TF) magnet system, so a TF power supply and quench protection are required to provide the power for charge and the reliable means for protection discharge of the TF coil stored energy. This paper describes the design of the TF power supply, current control and coil quench protection.
