This work relates to development of diagnostics for radiation power (Prad) and soft x-ray (SXR) intensity measurements in DEMO. A modular, multi-chamber, multi-channel SXR detection system based on gas electron multiplier technology lateral configuration is currently conceptual design phase. The high magnetic fields expected at the planned detector positions diagnostic ports tokamak must be considered design. present study examines two contributions its influence. first one pertained...
This work addresses the development of diagnostics for core plasma radiated power and soft x-ray intensity measurements, which will be useful in future fusion reactors to ensure reliable control (by monitoring loss across separatrix) accordance with DEMO requirements. For this purpose, we look into such a detection system that provide required information via diagnostics. The target photon range detecting is considered 3–50 keV. aspects have included detailed design, physics, engineering...
This work presents recent efforts in optimization of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detector simulations developed so far. The mentioned triple-GEM based measurement systems were already tested at the WEST project and other devices recording soft X-ray (SXR) plasma radiation target range 2-15 keV. Long term plans may envisage usage gaseous SXR diagnostics DEMO reactor for real time monitoring control, as high neutron fluxes preclude application semiconductor-based technologies. Conditions...
