Parametric Studies of the EU DEMO Central Solenoid

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2023
The Central Solenoid (CS) is at the core of the EU DEMO tokamak, and has a strong impact on the tokamak design and the overall machine size. By ramping its current, the CS generates a change of magnetic flux, which initiates the plasma, and induces and controls the plasma current.

Overview of EU DEMO design and R&D activities

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2014
Abstract One important objective of the EU fusion roadmap Horizon 2020 is to lay the foundation of a Demonstration Fusion Power Reactor (DEMO) to follow ITER, with the capability of generating several 100 MW of net electricity to the grid and operating with a closed fuel-cycle by 2050.

DEMO physics challenges beyond ITER

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 2020
For electricity producing tokamak fusion reactors like EU-DEMO, it is prudent to choose a plasma scenario close to the ITER baseline, where the largest amount of experimental evidence is available.

Re-design of EU DEMO with a low aspect ratio

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design
The design point that had been chosen for EU DEMO in 2016 is reviewed here and a modification is proposed with a lower aspect ratio. Previously the same aspect ratio, A, was chosen for EU DEMO as in major tokamak experiments including ITER (A = 3.1), and,

Service Joining Strategy for the EU DEMO

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2020
As part of the European Research Roadmap to the Realisation of Fusion Energy, the DEMO reactor aims to show the feasibility of a fusion power plant. Due to the loss of revenue created by downtime and the potential for a breakdown to render a reactor inoperable, maintenance is “mission critical” for a power plant.

Preliminary Design of DEMO PF Coils Based on EU DEMO 2018 Baseline

IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity, 2020
The dimensioning of Winding Packs and allocation of materials in DEMO PF coils is proposed based on the requirements defined by the EUROfusion 2018 DEMO baseline. The coils are pancake-wound and use two types of forced flow cable-in-conduit conductors.

Safety important classification of EU DEMO components

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2019
Abstract The identification of structures, systems and components (SSCs) performing safety functions is of paramount importance for an EU DEMO development in all phases of the project: design, fabrication, commissioning, operation, maintenance, inspections and tests.

Demo blanket technology R&D results in EU

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2002
Abstract The European breeding blanket R&D for DEMO is focussed on the development of two concepts: the Water Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) and the Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB). Test Blanket Modules (TBMs) based on these two concepts will be tested in ITER during the first 10 years of operation.
