Abstract
Each layer of TF coil winding pack has to be connected electrically in series to form the coil. The inter-layer Nb3Sn splice joint design which does not exceed the conductor dimensions is proposed in this paper for the updated 63Â kA Nb3Sn TF conductor. This proposed joint design allows a continuous winding of TF coil winding pack from layer to layer, housing the joint at the zone of inter-layer transition. Ultimately, the all inter-layer joints should be arranged within the winding pack at the low-field and low mechanically stressed region of D-shaped TF coil.
