A complete EM analysis of DEMO WCLL Breeding Blanket segments during VDE-up

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2019
Abstract Considerable effort is made within the EUROfusion consortium to analyse the electromagnetic (EM) loads that act on the in-vessel components of DEMO during normal and off-normal operations. These loads are important, often design driving, inputs for the structural assessment of such components. With regard to the Breeding Blanket (BB) project,
