Assessment of Metal Foil Pump Configurations for EU-DEMO

Energies
It is a challenging but key task to reduce the tritium inventory in EU-DEMO to levels that are acceptable for a nuclear regulator. As solution to this issue, a smart fuel cycle architecture is proposed based on the concept of Direct Internal Recycling ...

Power exhaust scenarios for EU-DEMO

Nuclear Fusion
We present an analysis of possible power exhaust scenarios for EU-DEMO. We employ the SOLPS-ITER code with the newly developed advanced fluid neutral model to scan a relatively wide range of neutral pressure divertor and impurity concentration in the ...

ECCD studies for EU-DEMO plasmas [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
The possibility of driving a large fraction of the plasma current in a tokamak reactor employing electron cyclotron waves is investigated for scenarios as envisaged in the European DEMO through beam tracing calculations performed with the TORBEAM code ...

Design progress of EU DEMO divertor cassette

Nuclear Materials and Energy
In the context of EUROfusion activities for the development of the DEMO reactor design, the divertor configuration is a major challenge. The current conceptual divertor design is based on the use of EUROFER97 for the divertor cassette body, while ...

Progress in the design of the superconducting magnets for the EU DEMO [PDF]

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2018
In the framework of the DEMOnstration fusion power plant (DEMO) design coordinated by the EUROfusion consortium, a pre-conceptual design of the superconducting magnet system has been developed. For the toroidal field coils (TFCs), three winding pack (WP) options have been proposed; exploring different winding approaches (pancakes vs.

An integral approach to plasma-wall interaction modelling for EU-DEMO

Nuclear Fusion
An integral approach to plasma-wall interaction (PWI) modelling for DEMO is presented, which is part of the EUROfusion Theory and Advanced Simulation Coordination activities that were established to advance the understanding and predictive capabilities ...
