Description

TORE SUPRA is a fairly large tokamak (R = 2.350 and r = 0.800) and has an original goal to withstand a large power removal (25 MW) during a 30 seconds long pulse / 1 /. One of the main energy removal system is the inner first wall which was originally designed for the following aims: - protect the inner side of the vacuum vessel from normal plasma operation (participates to the plasma power removal) and against disruptive events (plasma energ quench and current decay), - act as a toroidal belt limiter during steady state operation and plasma start up, - protect the vacuum vessel from the shine through of the neutral beam injectors and act as a beam dump for short shots. This contribution describes the design, fabrication and testing. (author). 3 refs.; 4 figs
