The ITER Cryogenic System is one of the largest Cryogenic facilities to build and commission. Main challenge is not only to demonstrate quite large cryogenic performance of machines but also to coordinate start-up and operation of a very large number and diversity of equipment in a multi-contract environment. To give overview, ITER Cryogenic System is mainly composed of three identical Liquid...

ITER liquid helium plants (LHe plants) provide 75kW of cold power at 4.5K to cool-down the 10 000 tons of magnets, the cryopumps and the current leads of the tokamak. The 3 cold boxes delivering this power are one the most powerful equipment ever built at this level of temperature. Before being connected to the tokamak, these LHe plants shall pass a complex series of tests to demonstrate their...

The ITER project aims to build a fusion device with the goal of demonstrating the scientific and technical feasibility of fusion power. It is a joint project between the European Union, China, India, Japan, South Korea, the Russian Federation, and the USA. ITER is being built in Europe, at Cadarache in the south of France.

The ITER, meaning “the way” in Latin, aims to achieve sustainable fusion energy through self-heating plasma with a gain ≥ 10. The United States is one of the seven members of this prestigious project, which is in the advanced stages of construction in the south of France. The vacuum systems at ITER are critical to the project as they handle the evacuation and exhaust of the gases from the...

Toward an early realization of fusion energy, a Broader Approach (BA) Agreement between Japan and the European Union was established in 2007. As part of this agreement, a tokamak-type fusion experimental device, JT-60SA, was constructed in Japan as a collaboration between Fusion for Energy and the National Institutes for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology (QST). The JT-60SA uses a...
