Tokamak Power Reactor Ignition and Time-Dependent Fractional Power Operation

Accidents in a nuclear power reactor operation.

Rf-driven Tokamak Reactor with Sub-ignited, Thermally Stable Operation*

Simulation of Power Exhaust in Edge and Divertor of the SlimCS Tokamak Demo Reactor

Design of the power handling for the demo tokamak reactor, SlimCS, with the fusion power of Pfus ≤ 3 GW and the exhausted power of Pout = 500 MW was investigated. First, effects of the divertor geometry of the V-shaped corner and the Ar impurity seeding on the radiation distribution and the target power loading were summarized in the simulation (SOLDOR/NEUT2D) with a constant concentration of A...

The Science Program of the TCV Tokamak: Exploring Fusion Reactor and Power Plant Concepts

TCV is acquiring a new 1 MW neutral beam and 2 MW additional thirdharmonic ECRH to expand its operational range. Its existing shaping and ECRH launching versatility was amply exploited in an eclectic 2013 campaign. A new sub-ms real-time equilibrium reconstruction code was used in ECRH control of NTMs and in a prototype shape controller. The detection of visible light from the plasma boundary w...

An Overview of Hydroelectric Power Plant: Operation, Modeling, and Control

Renewable energy provides twenty percent of electricity generation worldwide. Hydroelectric power is the cheapest way to generate electricity today. It is a renewable source of energy and provides almost one-fifth of electricity in the world. Also, it generates electricity using a renewable natural resource and accounting for six percent of worldwide energy supply or about fifteen percent of th...
