Abstract
The energy source for a pulsed coil system has to comply with certain requirements regarding stored energy and peak power delivered to the coil. A quick estimation can be performed with the methods derived in Sect. 2.2. A constant current density coil with inner bore diameter of 10 mm and coil parameters α = β = 20 made from a hypothetical material with a tensile strength of 2.2 GPa could produce a central field of 100 T, requiring a magnetic energy of 4.6 MJ. If we assume a rise time of the pulsed field of 5 ms, then the pulsed power source would need to deliver an average power of about 1 GW.
