Thermal Response of a Lithium Vapor Divertor to Cyclical Operation

Journal Article Parsons, Matthew S. ; Porcelli, Margaret ; Emdee, Eric D. ; ... - Journal of Fusion Energy (Online)

Abstract The lithium vapor divertor concept is being developed as a method to achieve detached divertor conditions in a tokamak while minimizing impurity radiation losses from the core plasma. SOLPS-ITER modeling has previously been used to identify some of the geometric constraints and required lithium evaporation rate of a lithium vapor divertor in a medium-sized tokamak during steady-state operation. Here an updated conceptual design based on these operating requirements is introduced and the thermal response of the system is modeled during cyclical operation, consistent with operation in a short-pulse tokamak.

Physics design for a lithium vapor box divertor experiment on Magnum-PSI

Dataset Schwartz, Jacob ; Emdee, Eric ; Goldston, Robert ; ...

The lithium vapor box divertor is a potential solution for power exhaust in toroidal confinement devices. The divertor plasma interacts with a localized, dense cloud of lithium vapor, leading to volumetric radiation, cooling, recombination, and detachment. To minimize contamination of the core plasma, lithium vapor is condensed on cool (300°C to 400°C) baffles upstream of the detachment point. Before implementing this in a toroidal plasma device with a slot divertor geometry, we consider an experiment with a scaled baffled-pipe geometry in the high-power linear plasma device Magnum-PSI. Three 15 cm-scale open cylinders joined by 6 cm diameter ‘nozzles’ are positionedmore »« less
Design and measurement methods for a lithium vapor box similarity experiment

Dataset Schwartz, J A ; Emdee, E D ; Jaworski, M A ; ...

The lithium vapor box divertor is a concept for handling the extreme divertor heat fluxes in magnetic fusion devices. In a baffled slot divertor, plasma interacts with a dense cloud of Li vapor which radiates and cools the plasma, leading to recombination and detachment. Before testing on a tokamak the concept should be validated: we plan to study detachment and heat redistribution by a Li vapor cloud in laboratory experiments.Mass changes and temperatures are measured to validate a Direct Simulation Monte Carlo model of neutral Li.The initial experiment involves a 5 cm diameter steel box containing 10g of Li heldmore »« less
Developments on two lithium vapor-box linear test-stand experiments

Dataset Schwartz, Jacob A ; Goldston, Robert J

The lithium vapor-box divertor is a possible fusion power exhaust solution.It uses condensation pumping to create a gradient of vapor density in a divertor slot; this should allow a stable detachment front without active feedback.As initial explorations of the concept, two test stands which take the form of three connected cylindrical stainless steel boxes are being developed: one without plasma at PPPL, to test models of lithium evaporation and flow; and one for the linear plasma device Magnum-PSI (at DIFFER in Eindhoven, The Netherlands) to test the ability of a lithium vapor cloud to induce volumetric detachment and redistribute themore »« less
