Tuberculosis (TB) is of increasing concern due to the recent emergence and spread MDR-TB, XDR-TB, TDR-TB HIV/AIDS pandemic. There urgent need for novel antitubercular agents which can shorten treatment duration. Based on isosteric replacement 3D structural similarity between Linezolid, an oxazolidine antimycobacterial agent, we have designed 4-amino-3,5-di(substituted)thiazolin-2(3H)thione/ones, synthesized evaluated their activity Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain. Some compounds...
To characterize ITER Diagnostic Neutral Beam (DNB) system with full specification and to support IPR's negative ion beam based neutral injector (NBI) development program, a R&D facility, named INTF is under commissioning phase. Implementation of successful DNB at requires several challenges need be overcome. These issues are related the production, its neutralization corresponding transport over path lengths ∼ 20.67 m reach plasma. procurement package for INDIA, as an in-kind contribution...
The Indian Test Facility (INTF) for Neutral Beams is designed with the objective to not only test performance of an ion source but also characterize transmission Beam a length 20.66 m and thereby generate adequate database on quality beam that required CXRS diagnostics measurement Helium ash content in fusion plasma.
In SST-1 and Aditya-U Tokamaks, two ECRH systems (42GHz-500kW 82.6GHz-200k) are used to carry out various experiments related assisted plasma start-up heating at fundamental second harmonic. The tokamak is operated 1.5T magnetic field 42GHz system has been extensively for heating. 82.6GHz could not be thoroughly due limitation in power as 200kW enough breakdown original 82.6GHz-200kW being upgraded terms of experiment higher power. Gyrotron 400kW tested successfully factory delivers 48kV...
A 42GHz-500kW ECRH system [1-6] is used to carry out various experiments related plasma breakdown and ECR heating on tokamaks SST-1 Aditya-U. The has been upgraded with new anode modulator power supply launch two pulses simultaneously. In SST-1, routinely for at fundamental harmonic, approximately 150kW launched 70ms 150ms duration consistent start-up achieved in SST-1. the recent experiments, second EC pulse also flat-top heat plasma, some signatures are seen but more will be carried...
In the tokamaks ECRH system is used for pre-ionization, start up, heating, current drive and suppression of NTMs (Neo Classical Tearing Modes). A Standard consists high power microwave source Gyrotron, circular corrugated waveguide based transmission line launcher. The Focused ECH launched into plasma through beam emerges out from propagates freely in air with finite divergence. So focusing plane mirror combination to launch focused plasma. Thus an launcher metallic profiled mirror, UHV...
The Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ECRH) system is an important heating for the reliable start-up of tokamak. 42GHz and 82.6GHz Gyrotron based ECRH systems are used in tokomaks SST-1 Aditya to carry out related experiments. Gyrotrons high power microwave tubes as a source systems. need be handled with optimum care right from installation its Full parameter control operation. associated subsystems like: High voltage supplies (Beam anode voltage), dedicated crowbar system, magnet,...
Thermal Plasma processing has many applications in medical and environmental fields like melting, smelting waste disposal. Here, the primary vessel known as plasma chamber is preheated to a high temperature of around ∼1000◦C using arcs. In this design process, CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis played major role defining chamber. The simulation methodology been benchmarked based on comparison experiment carried out for an experimental system available at IPR (Institute Research)....
