Abstract
To explore innovative approaches for optimizing tokamak configurations and combining the advantages of both tokamaks and stellarators, the J-TEXT tokamak recently underwent an upgrade by installing the External Rotational Transform (ERT) coil system. This system consists of two rings for producing a helical magnetic field. Due to space limitations, the ERT coil system is installed inside the vacuum vessel. The ERT coils feature a modular rail structure designed to navigate the intricate vacuum vessel environment. The successful installation of the ERT coil system on J-TEXT has yielded preliminary experimental results that align with the design objectives.
