The purpose of this page is to catalog the TRC test results so they can be accessed by project participants outside PPPL.  PPPL participants can go directly to the TRC server at NCSXPC01.pppl.gov.

 

26 August 2005 results (Gernhardt)

 

Coil test instrumentation

Initial calibrations and sample strain tests

 

09 September 2005 results (Gernhardt)

 

A series of shots were run leading up to the 20kA Shot 118255.  During this shot, two coolant tubes ruptured and needed to be repaired.  Testing is expected to resume on 19 September.

 

Summary of results

Excel data files of results: Shot 118236 (5kA), Shot 118254 (10kA), and Shot 118255 (20kA)

Current and voltage traces for Shot 118255 (20kA) (Schneider)

 

19-20 September 2005 results

 

A series of shots were run leading up to the final 31kA Shot 118591.  A complete log of ALL shots is presented here.

Current, voltage, and resistance traces for Shot 118534 (15kA) (Schneider)

Resistance traces for Shots 118577-118591 (Schneider)

Tabulated I, V, and R data for Shot 118590 (Schneider)

Tabulated data for other shots can be gotten by contacting Hans Schneider at hschneid@pppl.gov

 

Summary of results (Gernhardt)

Excel data files of thermocouple and strain gage results: Shot 118590 (31kA) and Shot 118591 (31kA). Note that these two shots are very similar, but the thermocouple channels were changed to get more data.  Contact Geoff Gettelfinger at  ggettelf@pppl.gov for details.
