Plans for Liquid Metal Divertor in Tokamak Compass

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The COMPASS tokamak (R = 0.56 m, a = 0.2 m, BT = 1.3 T, Ip ~ 300 kA, pulse duration 0.4 s) operates in ITER-like plasma shape in H-mode with Type-I ELMs. In 2019, we plan to install into the divertor a test target based on capillary porous system filled with liquid lithium/tin. This single target will be inclined toroidally in order to be exposed to ITER-relevant surface heat flux (20 MW/m2). Based on precisely measured actual heat fluxes, our simulations predict (for 45° inclination, without accounting for the lithium vapor shielding) the surface temperature rises up to 700°C within 120 ms of the standard ELMy H-mode heat flux with ELM filaments reaching hundreds MW/m2. Significant lithium vaporization is expected. The target surface will be observed by spectroscopy, fast visible and infrared cameras. The scientific program will be focused on operational issues (redeposition of the evaporated metal, ejection of droplets, if any) as well as on the effect on the plasma physics (improvement of plasma confinement, L–H power threshold, Zeff, etc.). After 2024, a closed liquid divertor may be installed into the planned COMPASS Upgrade tokamak (R = 0.84 m, a = 0.3 m, BT = 5 T, Ip = 2 MA, Pin = 8 MW, pulse duration ~2 s) with ITER-relevant heat fluxes loading the entire toroidal divertor.
