title = "Pellet fueling of ITER burning plasmas",
abstract = "Pellet injection is the primary technique planned for fueling of ITER burning plasmas. Efficient fueling with D-T is a requirement for achieving high fusion gain and it cannot be achieved with gas fueling alone. Injection of pellets from the inner wall has been shown on present day tokamaks to provide efficient fueling and is planned for use on ITER Modeling of the fueling deposition from inner wall pellet injection using the Parks ExB drift model indicates that pellets have the capability to fuel well inside the separatrix. Gas fueling calculations show very poor fueling efficiency due to the high density and wide scrape off layer. Isotopically mixed D-T pellets can provide efficient tritium fueling that will minimize tritium wall loading when compared to gas puffing.",
