Fusion plasma control using TRAIL: a nondamageable limiter
Description
An attractive new limiter system is described, termed TRAIL (Tokamak Rail Gun Limiter), which can inject streams of pellets into the plasma to: (a) define the plasma boundary, (b) absorb plasma disruption energy, and (c) control plasma temperature profiles. Using EM (Electromagnetic) guns now being developed for military applications, particles can be injected at velocities in the range of meters to several kilometers per second. Transient heat transfer analyses are presented for various pellet sizes (0.5 to 1.5 cm diam), heat fluxes (5000 to 200,000 W/cm2), compositions (Al, Cu, C, Mo, and Li) and heat pulse length
