Considerations on the approach to ignition in large tokamaks

  • 1. JET Joint Undertaking, Abingdon, UK
  • 2. Euratom/UKAEA Fusion Association, Abingdon (UK). Culham Lab.

Description

The approach to ignition in one-dimensional tokamak models is examined, first by mapping parameter space using a steady-state code and then by applying, to JET, a particular transport model justified by comparison with PLT. The appearance of a cool plasma mantle to limit impurity production is an important feature of this model and conditions are given for the mantle to exist stably. (author)
