Abstract

Two methods of optimizing the poloidal field system are compared. The first one is the conventional energy-minimization scheme. The second relies in minimizing the shear stresses in the toroidal field coil due to the out-of-plane loads. The optimization process is done on fixed plasma parameters, with A = 4.
