Tritium-Lean Fusion Power Plants with Asymmetric Deuterium-Tritium Transport and Pumping
J. F. Parisi, S. Meschini, A. Rutkowski +1
Asymmetries in deuterium-tritium (D-T) particle transport and divertor pumping speeds are shown to enhance tritium self-sufficiency in fusion power plants. Using a diffusive partic…
Design of a Thomson scattering diagnostic for the SMART tokamak
M. Kaur, A. Diallo, B. LeBlanc +8
We describe the design of a Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostic to be used on the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART). SMART is a spherical tokamak being commissioned in Spain that a…
Simultaneous Enhancement of Tritium Burn Efficiency and Fusion Power with Low-Tritium Spin-Polarized Fuel
J. F. Parisi, A. Diallo, J. A. Schwartz
This study demonstrates that using spin-polarized deuterium-tritium (D-T) fuel with more deuterium than tritium can increase tritium burn efficiency (TBE) by at least an order of m…
Doubling Fusion Power with Volumetric Optimization in Magnetic Confinement Fusion Devices
J. F. Parisi, J. W. Berkery, A. Sladkomedova +17
A technique, volumetric power optimization, is presented for enhancing the power output of magnetic confinement fusion devices. Applied to a tokamak, this approach involves shiftin…
