The flexible Heliac TJ-II was designed on the basis of calculations performed by the team of physicists and engineers of [[CIEMAT]], in collaboration with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORNL ORNL], USA) and the Institut für PlasmaPhysik at Garching ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max-Planck-Institut_f%C3%BCr_Plasmaphysik IPP], Germany). The TJ-II project received preferential support from [[Euratom]] for phase I (Physics) in 1986 and for phase II (Engineering) in 1990. The [[TJ-II:Construction|construction of this flexible Heliac]] was carried out in parts according to its constitutive elements, which were commissioned to various European companies, although 60% of the investments reverted back to Spanish companies.
