Coil design geometry
Standard design is rectangular copper (or aluminium) conductor, with cooling water tube. Insulation is glass cloth and epoxy resin.
Amp-turns (NI) are determined, but total copper area (Acopper) and number of turns (N) are two degrees of freedom and need to be decided.
Current density:
j = NI/Acopper Optimum j
determined from economic criteria.

Field must be flat to 1 part per 10000
Shims extend the good field
To compensate for the non-infinite pole, shims are added at the pole edges. The area and shape of the shims determine the amplitude of error harmonics which will be present.
