PF Coil Distribution
The whole EAST PF
magnet system consists
of 14 coils, among them
PF1 to PF6 are the CS
coils, PF7 to PF10 are the
diverter coils, and PF11
to PF14 are the PF big
coils. They located
symmetrically around the
equatorial plane

The PF system consists of 14 upper and lower SC coils
around the plasma in the EAST tokamak, due to the series
connection in diverter, 12 set of PFPS is essential.

The requirements of quench protection
★ to discharge the magnets in such a way that is less than
a prescribed limit under all conditions;
★ to limit the maximum instantaneous voltages imposed
on the magnet (terminal to terminal, and terminal to
ground);
★ to ensure successful discharge with a prescribed
reliability for a given number of events over the design
lifetime.
ASIPP
QP Feature for PF Coil
★ Frequent switching off. the high current rate, and plasma
disruption in operation, The PF coil has possibly more quench,
★ strong coupling. The 12 pairs of coil have strong decoupling in
each other, in QP the coil energy dissipation will be different from
single coil.
★ Positive and negative current. in PF coil,it is important for QP
design to use artificial current zero technology
★High power in input power supply. In PF magnet system, the
primary power supply usually is quite high voltage, therefore it is
necessary to suppress the input power supply in QP

QP Operation Scenario
★ Bypass primary PS.
Upon command, the quench protection
system will suppress the power supply, close the bypass CU3.
★ Open DCCB. open the DCCB1, after 100ms, and open DCB2.
★ Open PB. If the current detected by sensor DCCT after 200ms is
not zero, the pyrobreaker PB will open.
★ Fuse melt, and Energy is dissipated in R . The current
flowing through the magnet then follows the circuit through CU3, R and
L, and the majority of the energy is deposited in R.
