Creators

  • 1. Commission of the European Communities, Abingdon (UK). JET Joint Undertaking

Description

A Plasma Fault Protection System (PFPS) has been installed on JET and is able to terminate a discharge if dangerous plasma conditions develop, or if the discharge is otherwise unsatisfactory. A number of plasma signals are considered in real time by a microprocessor and when a particular plasma fault is recognised an appropriate response is issued to the plant. (author)
