Abstract

Alternative advanced technologies are being evaluated for use in cooling the Faraday shields used for protection of ion cyclotron range of frequencies (ICR) antenna in Tokamaks. The two approaches being evaluated include heat pipe cooling and gas cooling. Both technologies offer attractive alternatives to water-cooled designs primarily because they remove the time-consuming cleanup required in the event of tube weld failures and because they increase the operating temperature range for the shield.
