TFTR neutral beam bellows redesign and calorimeter upgrade

  • 1. Princeton Univ., NJ (USA)

Description

TFTR has experienced calorimeter bellows failures at lower duty cycles than anticipated. The paper will consist of a description of the history of the problems, the analysis and testing that went into the solution of the problem within present design constraints. Guidelines for future bellows designs of this type and application (long stroke and vertical operation) will be presented. Improvements incorporated in the other components associated with the calorimeter assembly will also be described. 2 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab
