ECCD studies for EU-DEMO plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ 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 ...

Assessment of Metal Foil Pump Configurations for EU-DEMO

open access: yesEnergies
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 ...

Conceptual design of a modular EC heating system for EU-DEMO

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
The European DEMO (EU-DEMO) reactor studies within EUROfusion aim to develop a fusion power plant concept. The large tokamak device needs an auxiliary heating power which, at the present stage, is provided by the Electron Cyclotron (EC) heating system ...

Matter Injection in EU-DEMO: The Preconceptual Design [PDF]

open access: yesFusion 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 ...

Progress in EU-DEMO in-vessel components integration

open access: hybridFusion Engineering and Design, 2017
In the EU DEMO design (Romanelli, 2012; Federici et al., 2014), due to the large number of complex systems inside the tokamak vessel it is of vital importance to address the in-vessel integration at an early stage in the design process. In the EU DEMO design, after a first phase in which the different systems have been developed independently based on ...
