Energy Storage Inductor for the Low Energy Booster resonant power supply system

The Energy Storage Inductor (ESI) is an important part of the Low Energy Booster (LEB) Resonant Power Supply System. The ESI is a 40 mH, 3400 A, two-legged, picture frame, ONAN-cooled, linear inductor. The ESI is currently under construction at the UETM plant in Ekaterinburg (Russia) as a part of an inter-laboratory collaborative agreement between BINP (Russia) and SSCL (USA). This paper gives an overview of the ESI requirements and describes the design approach and testing methods.<
