Impact of mechanical constraints on tokamak design and implications for high field power plants

Timothe Auclair, Baptiste Boudes, Jean-Luc Duchateau +5

Two analytical models for sizing the toroidal field coils and central solenoid of a tokamak are developed within the D0FUS system code: a pedagogical thin-cylinder model and a refi…

Runaway electron generation in ITER mitigated disruptions with improved physics models

L. Votta, F. J. Artola, E. Nardon +2

We assess runaway-electron (RE) generation in ITER disruptions mitigated by shattered pellet injection (SPI) using improved physics modelling in the 1D disruption simulation framew…

Non-linear MHD modelling of shattered pellet injection in ASDEX Upgrade

W. Tang, M. Hoelzl, M. Lehnen +11

Shattered pellet injection (SPI) is selected for the disruption mitigation system in ITER, due to deeper penetration, expected assimilation efficiency and prompt material delivery.…
