COMPASS Upgrade is a new medium size, high magnetic field tokamak (R = 0.9 m, Bt 5 T, Ip 2 MA) currently under design in the Czech Republic. It will provide unique capabilities for addressing some of key challenges plasma exhaust physics, advanced confinement modes and configurations as well testing facing materials liquid metal divertor concepts. This paper contains an overview preliminary engineering main systems (vacuum vessel, central solenoid poloidal coils, toroidal support structure,...
Abstract The primary purpose of the ITER Radial Neutron Camera (RNC) is real-time control plasma burn. It requires neutron emissivity profile reconstruction with an accuracy better than 10% and a time resolution 10 ms. Algorithms based on Tikhonov Regularization, Minimum Fisher Information, Maximum Entropy Likelihood methods were compared for 1D deconvolution from RNC measurements. performance was evaluated using baseline architecture two DT 15 MA scenarios inductive operation. carried out...
Abstract The paper presents an overview of the design status Radial Neutron Camera (RNC), that, together with Vertical Camera, will provide, through reconstruction techniques applied to measured line-integrated neutron fluxes, time resolved measurement ITER and α-source profile (i.e. emissivity, neutrons emitted per unit volume). RNC is composed two subsystems, In-Port Ex-Port located, respectively, inside outside Plug Equatorial Port #01. subsystem in a more advanced stage since it has...
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...
Abstract The power output of plasma experiments and fusion reactors is a crucial parameter. It determined by neutron yields that are proportional directly related to the yield. number emitted neutrons should be known for safety reasons budget management. PF-1000 large facility based on focus phenomenon. operating in Institute Plasma Physics Laser Microfusion Warsaw. Neutron yield changes during subsequent pulses, which immanent part this type device so it must monitored terms emission....
The neutron activation method provides information about the total emission, yet in many applications, energy distribution of produced particles is also required. In this paper, codes based on methods popular tomography (Tikhonov Regularization, Minimum Fisher Information, Maximum Entropy and Likelihood Methods) have been developed for reconstruction spectra neutrons emitted by a Gas-Plasma Target Neutron Generator manufactured Gradel-Fusion Company. To perform measurements analysis...
