Title 136: Disruption main chamber heat loads
Name:Eric Hollmann ehollmann@ucsd.edu Affiliation:University of California, San Diego
Research Area:Disruption Mitigation Presentation time: Not requested
Co-Author(s): C. Lasnier, R. Pitts, M. Sugihara ITPA Joint Experiment : Yes
Description: Measure main chamber heat loads (conducted and radiated) during different types of disruptions (mitigated and unmitigated). ITER IO Urgent Research Task : Yes
Experimental Approach/Plan: Create disruptions (density limit, current limit, and beta limit) of reasonably reliable timing. In each case, optimize main chamber IR timing in view to get information both on overall heat load distribution as well as separation of TQ and CQ heat loads at location of max heat loads.
Background: Predicting disruption survivability in future tokamaks requires characterization of disruption heat loads. At the moment, very little data is available on main chamber heat loads (conducted and radiated).
Resource Requirements: 1 run day.
Diagnostic Requirements: Main chamber and divertor IR cameras. Fast bolometry
Analysis Requirements: IR thermography analysis.
Other Requirements:
