Summary and Future Works

o The SC coil test facility has been constructed and operated well.

o Two kinds of SC coils has been tested in the test facility, a prototype TF coil and a pair of CS model coil.

o The results of coil tests showed that the coils has been fabricated without any remarkable defect such as coil leak, and SAGBO in Incoloy908 jacket.

o The flow in the cooling channels was uniform in spite of continuous winding scheme.

o The test of the CS model coil are going on including cool-down, current excitation and discharges and the test will be continued until the end of 2004 for AC loss measurement.

o Acceptance test of the KSTAR coils are being conducted including the dimensional measurement, flow uniformity check, high voltage insulation test, and Jc measurement of the heat treated strand.
