A model coil developed at the High Magnetic Field Laboratory, Chinese Academy of Sciences, will be wound with a Nb(3)Sn cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC). In this paper, we first introduce the model coil structure and its design requirements and then explicate the important components of the model coil structure, such as the preload structure, joint, cooling circuit, etc. Stress analyses of the preload structure, lead-in and lead-out CICC, joint, transitive CICC, and some supporting structures are performed, and the results are compared with the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor metallic and composite structural component design criteria.
