Some notes on this one:

1. This mainly exists to be used as coordinate for other flux loop data (e.g. the magnetic_flux measured by a flux loop, see Magnetic flux #5 )
2. Names are unique (for a machine) identifiers stored as strings. These have no associated units. (Edit: Note that None for units is not the same as dimensionless -- dimensionless quantities should have 1 for their units)

Example usage:

Sample magnetics IDS:

• time: [0.0, 1e-3]
• flux_loop[0].name: "55.AD.00-MSA-1001"
• flux_loop[0].flux.data: [1.0, 2.0]
• flux_loop[1].name: "55.AD.00-MSA-1002"
• flux_loop[1].flux.data: [1.1, 2.1]

In fusion conventions, would be:

• Coordinates:
  • time: [0.0, 1e-3]
  • flux_loop_name: ["55.AD.00-MSA-1001", "55.AD.00-MSA-1002"]
• Data:
  • magnetic_flux (dimensions flux_loop_name, time): [[1.0, 2.0], [1.1, 2.1]]
