The poloidal field model coil (PFMC) of EAST was a large NbTi superconducting coil. The PFMC was designed and constructed by Institute of Plasma Physics, CAS, and it was tested during 2003 at our institute. One of the most important performance testing items was the AC (Alternating Current) loss. It was able to measure the AC losses by the calorimetric method. The results will be useful for the evaluation of the AC losses of the poloidal coil and provide meaningful data for future operation of the EAST device.
