Characterizations of thermal stability and electrical performance of Au-Ni coating on CuCrZr substrate for high vacuum radio-frequency contact application
Z Chen, Julien Hillairet, V. Turq +11
Radio-frequency (RF) contacts-which are an example of electrical contacts-are commonly employed on accelerators and nuclear fusion experimental devices. RF contacts with a current…
Radiofrequency and Mechanical Tests of Silver Coated CuCrZr Contacts for the ITER Ion Cyclotron Antenna
Julien Hillairet, Z. Chen, G Lombard +16
The ITER Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ICRH) system is designed to couple to the plasma 20 MW of RF power from two antennas in the 40-55 MHz frequency range during long pulses o…
Ion cyclotron resonance heating systems upgrade toward high power and CW operations in WEST
Julien Hillairet, Patrick Mollard, Yanping Zhao +33
The design of the WEST (Tungsten-W Environment in Steady-state Tokamak) Ion cyclotron resonance heating antennas is based on a previously tested conjugate-T Resonant Double Loops p…
R&D activities on RF contacts for the ITER ion cyclotron resonance heating launcher
Julien Hillairet, Arnaud Argouarch, Rob Bamber +23
Embedded RF contacts are integrated within the ITER ICRH launcher to allow assembling, sliding and to lower the thermo-mechanical stress. They have to withstand a peak RF current u…
