OSTI ID:4306399
From international meeting on the technology of controlled thermonuclear fusion experiments and the engineering aspects of fusion reactors; Austin, Texas, USA (20 Nov 1972). In technology of controlled thermonuclear fusion experiments and the engineering aspects of fusion reactors. A scoping design was carried out to determine the technological problems associated with the low-beta Tokamak approach to reactors. This system is envisioned to operate at quasi-steady state, producing about 1000 MW(th) and using stainless steel and a wall loading of 0.85 MW/m/sup 2/. Various system aspects of the design are described, including the plasma and its control; a diverter and startup magnet system; a blanket, shield, and heatremoval system; toroidal magnet design and limiting stresa effects; and an analysis of system hazards.
