Divertor of the European DEMO: Engineering and technologies for power exhaust

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 2022
In a power plant scale fusion reactor, a huge amount of thermal power produced by the fusion reaction and external heating must be exhausted through the narrow area of the divertor targets.

Integration of full divertor detachment with improved core confinement for tokamak fusion plasmas

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Divertor detachment offers a promising solution to the challenge of plasma-wall interactions for steady-state operation of fusion reactors. Here, we demonstrate the excellent compatibility of actively controlled full divertor detachment with a high ...

Role of molecular effects in divertor plasma recombination

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
Molecule-Activated Recombination (MAR) effect is re-considered in view of divertor plasma conditions. A strong isotopic effect is demonstrated. In deuterium plasmas, the reaction chain through D2+ formation, usually considered dominant and included in 2D

European divertor target concepts for DEMO: Design rationales and high heat flux performance

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2018
The divertor target plates are the most thermally loaded in-vessel components in a fusion reactor where high heat fluxes are produced on the plasma-facing components (PFCs) by intense plasma bombardment, radiation and nuclear heating.

Physics conclusions in support of ITER W divertor monoblock shaping

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
The key remaining physics design issue for the ITER tungsten (W) divertor is the question of monoblock (MB) front surface shaping in the high heat flux target areas of the actively cooled targets. Engineering tolerance specifications impose a challenging

The effect of divertor closure on detachment onset in DIII-D

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Experiments at DIII-D use different divertor geometries to measure the effect of divertor closure on detachment onset. We compare matched H-mode discharges in the closed (upper) divertor and the open (lower) divertor and use as a detachment onset metric ...

Neutral pressure and separatrix density related models for seed impurity divertor radiation in ASDEX Upgrade

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Analytical expressions for the divertor radiation around the onset of detachment based on the divertor neutral pressure and the upstream separatrix density are tested against measurements on strongly nitrogen seeded high confinement mode (H-mode ...

Dependence of particle and power dissipation on divertor geometry and plasma shaping in DIII-D small-angle-slot divertor

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
Dedicated experiments in DIII-D find that magnetic shaping and divertor target geometry significantly affect the divertor plasma conditions and divertor detachment process in the small-angle-slot (SAS) divertor.
