Recent experiments with the FELIX (Fusion ELectromagnetic Induction eXperiment) facility IT Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) suggest that the expected electromagnetic forces and torques in a tokamak first wall, blanket, and shield (FWBS) system can be modelled by a single eddy current mode, with a simple characterization.
