Description

In GitLab by @mkovari on Nov 14, 2017, 10:55

The vardes has an option

ipfres /0/ : switch for PF coil type:
    = 0 superconducting PF coils;
    = 1 resistive PF coils

However, it is not clear if this applies to the Central Solenoid, which should probably have its own switch.

Research direction

Start by locating the vardes handling and the existing ipfres option in PROCESS. Trace how the Central Solenoid coil type is currently determined, then define and implement a separate switch with corresponding tests or documentation so resistive and superconducting Central Solenoid behavior is unambiguous.
