Fusion performance of reversed shear discharges with an L-mode edge has been significantly improved in a thermonuclear dominant regime up to 2.8 MA plasma current the JT-60U tokamak. The core energy is efficiently confined due existence persistent internal transport barriers formed for both ions and electrons at large minor radius $r/a\ensuremath{\sim}0.7$ near boundary region. In assumed deuterium-tritium fuel, peak fusion amplification factor defined transient conditions involving $dW/dt$...

Ferritic steel tiles (FSTs) have been installed to improve the energetic ion confinement by reducing a toroidal magnetic field ripple. Aiming at cost-effective installation, orbit-following calculations of ions were carried out for design installation ferritic on JT-60U using fully three dimensional Monte-Carlo (F3D OFMC) code, which had developed insert experiments JFT-2M and can treat complex structure produced inserts. The FSTs add non-linear sensors plasma control an equilibrium...

Supersonic molecular beam injection (SMBI) was successfully operated in JT-60U after improving the performance of vacuum seal used inside injector head. Frequent density jumps were clearly observed main plasma against SMBI pulses with filling gas pressures ( P FG ) 0.2–0.6 MPa. The fuelling efficiency exhibited a weak dependence on and direction (high- low-field-side injections). amount necessary for achieving same level is much smaller than puffing. It comparable pellet even shallower...

Modification for long pulse operation up to 65 s with a neutral beam heating power of 12 MW (30 s) has provided an opportunity studies on plasma-wall interaction time scale tens seconds. During pulse, ELMy H-mode discharge, the net wall-pumping rate, evaluated by particle balance analysis, gradually decreases, and subsequently, becomes zero in ∼20 after injection starts. This situation is interpreted as 'wall saturation'. Wall saturation observed repetitive discharges. Although outgas due...

Variation of particle absorption at the first wall has been investigated in long-pulse (∼30 s) ELMy H-mode discharges on JT-60U. Quantitative analysis balance indicated that inventory was globally saturated with a time scale 10–15 s after several discharges. To understand mechanisms global saturation, distribution local saturation calculated from ion and neutral fluxes to evaluated using Monte-Carlo transport code. The estimated be shorter than 1 divertor plates dome, ∼10 lower half baffle...

The JT-60SA experimental device will be the world's largest superconducting tokamak when it is assembled in 2019 Naka, Japan (R = 3 m, a 1.2 m). It being constructed jointly by institutions EU and under Broader Approach agreement. Manufacturing of six NbTi equilibrium field (EF) coils, which have diameter up to 12 has been completed. So far, 13 18 toroidal (TF) each 7-m high 4.5-m wide, also manufactured tested at 4 K dedicated test facility France. first three four Nb3Sn central solenoid...
