In recent decades, a pioneering field of research has been investigating to reproduce the enormous power of the sun nuclear fusion reactions in a relatively small apparatus, i.e. a tokamak. This machine generates a closed magnetic field configuration able to supply and control an ionised plasma. The magnetic system is made by three main components: the Toroidal Field (TF) Coils for the primary...
The Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) facility is being built at ENEA Frascati (Italy), to address the development of a power exhaust system capable to handle the large heat fluxes expected to be deposited in fusion reactors on the plasma facing components.
DTT will be a compact and flexible fusion experiment relying on low-temperature superconducting magnets for the plasma confinement. The magnets...
The magnet feeders are critical systems of fusion reactors since they represent the interface between the in-cryostat components and the external environment. By realising the required electrical, cryogenic and mechanical connections, as well as hosting instrumentation cables, the feeders ensure the safe operation of the superconducting magnets. Therefore, the design and integration study of...
