Homogenous power distribution along gyrotron collector walls

Stefano Alberti, Damien Fasel, Pierre-François Isoz, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Ugo Siravo, Jérémie Dubray, Miguel Filipe Silva Füglister

EC RF power sources will play a major role in the future operation of large scale tokamaks (ITER, DEMO). A 1MW/170GHz gyrotron is the standard RF power unit considered for ITER. Even though the efficiency of such devices has been significantly increased th ...

New capabilities of the incoherent Thomson scattering diagnostics in the TCV tokamak: divertor and real-time measurements

Patrick Blanchard, Basil Duval, Pierre-François Isoz, Pierre Lavanchy, Xavier Llobet, Blaise Marlétaz, Philippe Marmillod, Yanis Andrebe, Severino Antonioni, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Steve Couturier, Joan Decker, Cristian Galperti

This work reports developments of the incoherent TS diagnostic capabilities in the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV). Their goals are to (i) diagnose the TCV divertor region, and (ii) provide Te and ne profiles of the plasma bulk in real-time. These t ...

High-efficiency, long-pulse operation of MW-level dual-frequency gyrotron, 84/126GHz, for the TCV Tokamak

Stefano Alberti, Damien Fasel, Timothy Goodman, Pierre-François Isoz, Pierre Lavanchy, Blaise Marlétaz, Jean-Philippe Hogge, Ugo Siravo, Jérémie Dubray, Jonathan Sylvain Masur, Miguel Filipe Silva Füglister, Matthieu Toussaint, Jérémy Genoud

The first unit of the dual-frequency gyrotron, 84-126GHz/lMW/2s, for the upgrade of the TCV ECH system has been delivered and is presently being commissioned. During a first phase, long-pulse operation (TRF>0.5s) has been achieved and powers in excess of 0 ...

Thomson scattering measurements in the divertor region of the TCV Tokamak plasmas

Patrick Blanchard, Basil Duval, Pierre-François Isoz, Pierre Lavanchy, Xavier Llobet, Blaise Marlétaz, Ivo Furno, Yanis Andrebe, Severino Antonioni, Jonathan Sylvain Masur, Steve Couturier, Joan Decker, Riccardo Agnello

In order to better study conventional and alternative divertor configurations, the TCV Tokamak was recently upgraded. In-vessel graphite baffles were installed in the TCV chamber to delimit a separate divertor chamber from the core that required enhanced d ...
