Abstract
A poloidal field coil assembly for use in a tokamak. The poloidal field coil assembly comprises inner and outer poloidal field coils and a controller. The inner poloidal field coil is configured for installation inside a toroidal field coil of the tokamak. The outer poloidal field coil is configured for installation outside the toroidal field coil. The controller is configured to cause current to be supplied to the inner and outer poloidal field coils such that the combined magnetic field produced by the inner and outer poloidal field coils has a null at the toroidal field coil.
