Currents in a Tokamak

open access: yes, 2008
A self-consistent analysis of the currents in a tokamak yields the result that the parallel neutralizing current is given simply by the sum of currents commonly called the bootstrap current and the Pfirsch-Schlueter current. An expression is given relating the parallel and perpendicular pressure gradient induced species flow velocities to the total ...

Study of an improved single neuron PID control algorithm in the Tokamak plasma density control system

open access: yesMeasurement + Control
Tokamak is an important device for controlled nuclear fusion research. The plasma electronic density control system (PEDCS) is an important system for controlling the Tokamak discharge process, which should be of high stability, rapidity, and accuracy ...

Important problems of future thermonuclear reactors*

open access: yesNukleonika, 2015
This paper concerns important and difficult problems connected with a design and construction of thermonuclear reactors, which have to use nuclear fusion reactions of heavy isotopes of hydrogen, i.e., deuterium (D) and tritium (T).

Mechanical model for a full fusion tokamak enabled by supercomputing

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Determining stress and strain in a component of a fusion power plant involves defining boundary conditions for the mechanical equilibrium equations, which implies the availability of a full reactor model for defining those conditions.
