Measurement Requirements and the Diagnostic System on ITER: Modifications Following the Design Review
نویسنده
چکیده
The requirements for plasma and first wall measurements on ITER, and the planned ITER diagnostic system, have been reviewed as part of the ITER design review process by a panel of experts experienced in operating modern tokamaks. The review panel recommended some changes in both the measurement requirements and the diagnostic system. These changes have been largely adopted and a new baseline diagnostic system has been developed. In this paper we present the main changes and outline the new baseline diagnostic system.

Assessment of the ITER high-frequency magnetic diagnostic set
The ITER high-frequency (HF) magnetic diagnostic system has to provide essential measurements of MHD instabilities with vertical |δBMEAS/BPOL| ~ 10 (~1 G) for frequencies up to 2 MHz to resolve toroidal mode numbers (n) in the range |n| = 10 to |n| = 50. A review of the measurement requirements for HF MHD instabilities in ITER was initiated during the TW4 work-program and led to significant int...
متن کاملThe Design and Implementation of Diagnostic Systems on ITER*
In order to meet the expected needs for first wall and plasma measurements, ITER will require about 40 different diagnostic systems drawn from all the main generic diagnostic groups – magnetics, neutron systems, optical and microwave systems, spectroscopic, bolometric, probes, pressure gauges and gas analysers. The design and implementation of the diagnostic systems is a major challenge because...

متن کاملConceptual design of the ITER fast-ion loss detector.
A conceptual design of a reciprocating fast-ion loss detector for ITER has been developed and is presented here. Fast-ion orbit simulations in a 3D magnetic equilibrium and up-to-date first wall have been carried out to revise the measurement requirements for the lost alpha monitor in ITER. In agreement with recent observations, the simulations presented here suggest that a pitch-angle resoluti...
