The SST-1 is a steady state super conducting tokamak, which is in the final phase of commissioning tests. It has a major radius of 1.1 m with plasma minor radius of 0.2 m, with maximum toroidal magnetic field of 3 Tesla at the plasma center. The mission of the SST-1 project is to address physics and engineering issues related to steady state tokamak operation. The superconducting magnet system of...
