A coil may include a metal wire wound circular around a center axis. The wire may have an electrically insulating layer insulating each turn of the wire in the winding from neighbouring turns. The shape of the complete winding, building up the coil, may be toroidal having an elliptic cross section in a plane perpendicular to a wire winding direction. And the wound coil may have a metal volume to total volume at a level so that the thermal heat conduction of the coil is above 0.8 W/m*K. A method for producing such a coil may involve applying the insulating layer to the wire. The wire may be wound around the center axis. The winding may be compressed to a toroidal shape.

A method for manufacturing a coil component includes: a first winding step to wind a first conductive wire around a winding core in a single layer from a first flange part toward a second flange part; and a second winding step to wind a second conductive wire around the winding core on the first conductive wire by the same number of turns and in the same direction as in the first winding step in a single layer in a manner that center B of the cross-section of the second conductive wire closest to the first flange part is positioned closer to the first flange part than is center A of the cross-section of the first conductive wire closest to the first flange part, and that the distance in the axial direction, between centers A and B is smaller than the radius of the wire.

An electromagnetic coil device includes a non-ferrous core having a substantially cylindrical shape and an insulated conductive medium such as piano wire arranged as a plurality of windings coiled around the non-ferrous core. The insulated conductive medium includes a conductive medium encased within an insulating medium. The plurality of windings include a first portion of windings and a second portion of windings separated by a third portion of windings. The insulating medium has at least one breakdown characteristic that permits shorting between individual conductors of the conductive medium in the first and second portions of windings thereby creating a first conductor region and a second conductor region electrically separated by the third portion of windings.

In a superconducting coil used in an MRI apparatus, it is necessary to arrange a superconducting wire at a desired position to obtain a desired coil shape in order to obtain a temporally stable static electromagnetic field with high strength and high uniformity. A superconducting coil includes a winding frame, a spacer disposed on an outer periphery of winding frame and including a winding groove having a spiral shape and a communication groove provided between winding grooves, and includes a coil group having a superconducting wire wound in winding groove. It is therefore possible to obtain superconducting coil having a desired coil shape.
