Abstract
The disclosure is directed to a fusion generator that includes a spherical housing. The generator may include a plurality of coils. The plurality of coils may include a poloidal field coil and a toroidal field coil formed of a high-temperature superconducting tape or ribbon. The toroidal field coil may be tilted at an angle along a toroidal field coil axis. The generator may include a graphite-fiber or graphene wrap configured to provide rigidity to one or more portion of the generator.
