摘要：

A superconducting cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) is adopted for the Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) superconducting magnet system which consists of 16 TF coils and 14 PF coils; The KSTAR Magnet system, uses two different types of CICCs-Nb3Sn cable with ncoloy 908 conduit and NbTi cable with 316LN stainless-steel conduit. A continuous CICC jacketing system is developed for the KSTAR CICC fabrication and the jacketing system uses the tube-mill process, which consists of forming, welding, sizing and squaring procedures. The design specification of CICCs and the fabrication process is described. The welding of the Incoloy 908 strip joint is also discussed. The fabrication results including the geometrical specification and the void fraction will be discussed.
