Divertor Shaping with Neutral Baffling as a Solution to the Tokamak Power Exhaust Challenge

Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Olivier Claude Martin Février

Exhausting power from the hot fusion core to the plasma-facing components is one fusion energy's biggest challenges. The MAST Upgrade tokamak uniquely integrates strong containment of neutrals within the exhaust area (divertor) with extreme divertor shapin ...

3D modelling of the R&W TF coil design for EU-DEMO including the winding pack and frictional effects

Xabier Sarasola Martin, Federica Demattè

The SPC team has proposed a design for the Toroidal Field (TF) coil of the DEMO tokamak based on the use of react & wind (R&W) Nb3Sn superconductor. Thanks to the grading of both the superconductor and the steel in the jackets the size of the TF coil was c ...

Fast ion generation by combined RF-NBI heating in W7-X

Jonathan Graves, Mike Machielsen

Good fast ion confinement in quasi-isodynamic stellarators still has to be demonstrated experimentally. In the absence of fusion alphas, auxiliary heating systems can be used to generate fast ions. For this purpose, W7-X has neutral beam injection and its ...

The role of plasma-atom and molecule interactions on power & particle balance during detachment on the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor

Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh

This paper shows first quantitative analysis of the detachment processes in the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor (SXD). We identify an unprecedented impact of plasma-molecular interactions involving molecular ions (likely D2+ ), resulting in strong ion sinks ...

Hybrid lithium niobate-on-silicon nitride platform for mid-IR supercontinuum generation

Tobias Kippenberg, Mikhail Churaev

Integrated optics has shown itself very convenient for exploiting nonlinear processes as it results in high confinement factor, freedom of dispersion engineering and compactness. However, the choice of materials is crucial for the development of nonlinear ...

Direct gyrokinetic comparison of pedestal transport in JET with carbon and ITER-like walls

Patrick Blanchard, Basil Duval, Ambrogio Fasoli, Yves Martin, Richard Pitts, Olivier Sauter, Henri Weisen, Stefano Coda, Marco Wischmeier, Jan Horacek, Yann Camenen, Jonathan Graves, Duccio Testa, Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, David Pfefferlé, Gabriele Merlo, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Federico Nespoli, Hamish William Patten, Nicola Vianello, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Samuel Lanthaler, Liang Yao, Cristian Sommariva, Davide Galassi, Alessandro Pau

This paper compares the gyrokinetic instabilities and transport in two representative JET pedestals, one (pulse 78697) from the JET configuration with a carbon wall (C) and another (pulse 92432) from after the installation of JET's ITER-like Wall (ILW). Th ...

Energetic ion dynamics and confinement in 3D saturated MHD configurations

David Pfefferlé

In the following theoretical and numerically oriented work, a number of findings have been assembled. The newly devised VENUS-LEVIS code, designed to accurately solve the motion of energetic particles in the presence of 3D magnetic fields, relies on a non- ...

The motion of a 2D pendulum in a channel subjected to an incoming flow

François Gallaire, Andrea Fani

The flow around a tethered cylinder subjected to an incoming flow transverse to its main axis and confined in a channel is investigated by means of global stability analysis of the full coupled body-fluid problem. When the cylinder is strongly confined (ra ...

Nonlinear quasisteady state benchmark of global gyrokinetic codes

Stephan Brunner, Laurent Villard, Ben McMillan

Two global gyrokinetic codes are benchmarked against each other by comparing simulation results in the case of ion temperature gradient driven turbulence, in the adiabatic electron response limit The two codes are the Eulerian code GENE and the Lagrangian ...

DC performances of ITER NbTi conductors: Models vs. measurements

Rainer Wesche, Pierluigi Bruzzone, Boris Stepanov

Within the R&D program on the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Poloidal Field (PF) coils, a full size conductor sample was tested in the SULTAN facility (CRPP Villigen, Switzerland). This sample is composed of two straight ITER-like ...
