Prospects of core–edge integrated no-ELM and small-ELM scenarios for future fusion devices
Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2023 One of our grand challenges towards fusion energy is the achievement of a high-performance plasma core coupled to a boundary solution. The high confinement mode (H-mode) provides such a high-performance fusion core due to the build-up of an edge ...

Quench Propagation in a TF Coil of the EU DEMO
Fusion Science and Technology, 2017 The design of a suitable quench protection system is fundamental for the safe operation of superconducting magnets and in turn requires the accurate simulation of the quench transient. The quench propagation in a toroidal field (TF) coil for the future European fusion reactor (EU DEMO) is analyzed here considering the latest, layer-wound winding pack ...
