Power exhaust scenarios for EU-DEMO
Nuclear FusionWe 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 ...

Matter Injection in EU-DEMO: The Preconceptual Design [PDF]
Fusion Science and Technology, 2021 EU-DEMO will be the next step in Europe after ITER on the path toward a fusion power plant. The matter injection systems have to provide the requested material in order to establish, maintain, and terminate the burning plasma. Their main function is to fuel the plasma, but other tasks are addressed as well like delivering matter for generating ...

Neutronics assessment of EU DEMO alternative divertor configurations
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2021 Abstract As a demonstration fusion power plant, EU DEMO has to prove the maturity of fusion technology and its viability for electricity production. The central requirements for DEMO rest on its capability to generate significant net electric power to the grid (300 MW to 500 MW) safely and consistently.
