The importance of the toroidal magnetic field for the feasibility of a tokamak burning plasma experiment
The next step in the demonstration of the scientific feasibility of a tokamak fusion reactor is a DT burning plasma experiment for the study and control of self-heated plasmas. In this paper, we examine the role of the toroidal magnetic field on the confinement of a tokamak plasma in the ELMy H-mode regime – the operational regime foreseen for ITER. It is commonly taken for granted that the nex...
متن کاملDivertor design for the tokamak physics experiment
In this paper we discuss the divertor design for the planned TPX tokamak, which will explore the physics and technology of steady state (1000 s pulses) heat and particle removal in high confinement (up to 4 × L-mode), high beta (up to /3 N = 5) divertor plasmas sustained by non-inductive current drive. TPX will operate in the double-null divertor configuration, with actively cooled graphite tar...
متن کاملIaea - F 1 - Cn - 69 / Ftp / 13 Advanced Tokamak Burning Plasma Experiment
A new reduced size ITER-RC superconducting tokamak concept is proposed with the goals of studying burn physics either in an inductively driven standard tokamak (ST) mode of operation, or in a quasi-steady state advanced tokamak (AT) mode sustained by non-inductive means. This is achieved by reducing the radiation shield thickness protecting the superconducting magnet by 0.5 m relative to ITER a...
متن کاملA Survey on Control-oriented Plasma Physics in Tokamak Reactors
Nuclear fusion control, and specifically plasma control, represents one of the newest and more promising applications of Control Engineering, with increasing interest in the control community. In this paper it is made a control-oriented review of the state of the art of nuclear fusion techniques. For this purpose, a comprehensive description of the fusion process is provided, focusing in the mo...
متن کاملBurning Plasma Physics Issues in a Possible Jet Upgrade
Record fusion yield (16MW) and fusion energy (22MJ) have been achieved in JET during the DTE1 campaign in 1997 [1], [2], respectively with an ELM-free H-mode and with an ELMy Hmode. Alpha heating has been observed [3] with alpha power in the range of 1.2MW. Significant fusion yield (up to 8MW) has been achieved with advanced scenarios [4]. These results have generated a large number of signific...
