The concept of the Swiss LCT Coil is based on a forced flow cooled conductor 18.5 × 18.5 mm 2 . The coil is wound in 11 double pancakes with a total of 462 turns. It is vacuum-pressure impregnated with epoxy resin and cured as a monolithic block in the coil case. The case is made of stainless steel...
