In order to test the capability of the full electromagnetic DYON to predict the plasma initiation feasibility of individual discharges and thus the operating space in the device, a dedicated experimental database was built in MAST-U by scanning the prefilled gas pressure $p_0$ and the induced loop voltage $V_{loop}$ (3 failed breakdown discharge…

The STEP (Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production) Programme aims to deliver a UK prototype fusion energy plant, targeting 2040, and a path to commercial viability of fusion. To deliver on this aim, we have performed initial scoping to identify the design point for a spherical tokamak prototype powerplant producing at least 100 MWe of…

UKAEA-CCFE-PR(22)212022
This paper describes the development of electromagnetic plasma burn-through model. Full circuit equations describing the currents in solenoid, poloidal field coil, and toroidally conducting passive structure have been integrated into the differential equation system of the plasma energy and particle balances in DYON. This enables consistent calcula…
