Project Details

Description

optimize lithium delivery tools
  • Analyze the roles of the lithium and the divertor cryopump in long pulse recycling and density control, and provide a physics-based re-design of the lower divertor plenum to optimize cryopump particle exhaust
  • Measure net erosion and material migration with the use of marker tiles, and enhanced impurity density diagnostics

Because long pulse recycling control is needed for next step devices, the knowledge will be used to improve reactor designs, while also advancing the EAST program.
