  The original design of JPARC main ring is to provide high beam power of 750 kW with machine repetition rate of 0.3 Hz. However, the severe space charge effects at low injection energy limit the beam intensity. In order to raise the beam power to the design limit, one logical way is to increase the repetition rate. However, the resulting eddy current in the laminations and pipes may impair the field quality of all magnets. In addition, the activation of beam pipe becomes severer in high beam power operation. Titanium beam pipe is proposed to replace the stainless steel pipe to reduce the activation and decrease the decay time. However, titanium has lower resistivity, severer eddy current effects are expected. The studies investigate the eddy current effects on field quality of the main dipole, quadrupole and sextupole magnets.
