Understanding tungsten melting behavior and its influence on plasma operation is one of the main concerns for ITER, which will be operated with a full divertor. Similar to actively cooled cassette modules have been successfully installed upper divertor in EAST stronger heat exhaust ability. However, an unexpected situ phenomenon has observed around strike point area both inner outer targets during recent campaigns. It was identified that such caused by leading edges, leads much high load...
Abstract Since the last IAEA-FEC in 2021, significant progress on development of long pulse steady state scenario and its related key physics technologies have been achieved, including reproducible 403 s long-pulse steady-state H-mode plasma with pure radio frequency (RF) power heating. A thousand-second time scale (∼1056 s) fully non-inductive high injected energy up to 1.73 GJ has also achieved. The EAST operational regime β P significantly extended ( H 98y2 > 1.3, ∼ 4.0, N 2.4 n e / GW...
In the initial stage of SAD phasing, essential point is to break intrinsic phase ambiguity. The presence two kinds information enables discrimination doublets from data prior density modification. One heavy atoms (anomalous scatterers), while other direct-methods relationships. former can be expressed by Sim distribution, latter Cochran distribution. Typically, only distribution has been used yield phases for subsequent However, it demonstrated that using based on product and distributions...
The next generation of magnetic confinement fusion experimental facility, the China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR), is currently undergoing physical and engineering design. essential technology research development projects related to CFETR manufacture are in progress. As one demo for R&D, a 1/8 full-scaled vacuum vessel (VV), which aims solve key technologies forming, welding, measurement, assembly, etc future manufacturing process VV, was initiated 2015 by Institute Plasma Physics...
The 1/32 subsector of China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor vacuum vessel mockup is fully penetration welded together with four poloidal segments (PSs) which are made by forming and welding, so that each PS needs to machine the welding grooves. However, measurement results show there dimensional errors between design model has been made. This means grooves cannot be machined directly according model. So, method reverse engineering used achieve 3-D Based on this model, for CNC machining can...
In order to obtain accurate position of the inner key components in experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST), a combined optical measurement method which is comprised laser tracker (LT) and articulated coordinate measuring machine (CMM) has been brought forward. LT, an instrument large range high accuracy, employed for establishing precision network EAST, CMM also EAST.

The probability formula of the direct-method SAD (single-wavelength anomalous diffraction) phasing proposed by Fan & Gu (1985, Acta Cryst. A41, 280–284) contains an error term which is related to lack-of-closure error. This used as a weighting function in phase derivation and subsequent calculation electron-density maps. Previously, there has been constant that had be determined empirically for each particular case. It found improper choice often leads failure phasing. problem resolved...
China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) vacuum vessel (VV), which is welded from forming shells and ribs, a toroidal double shell structure device.

The major radius of the China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) is 7.2 m, and its minor 2.2 which are larger than those International Thermonuclear Experimental (ITER). That makes assembly CFETR machine more intricate challenging due to tool design, their stresses complex when weight key parts/components increases, especially cryostat vessel, vacuum vessel (VV), toroidal field (TF) magnets, poloidal (PF) thermal shielding (TS). Based on characteristics machine, a 45-deg sector (with...
