This contribution outlines a strategy for assessing tritium (T) inventory in plasma facing components (PFC) during JET T operations. It is based on retention as a fraction of fuel injected in-vessel, currently reported as 0.24% for 2011-2012 operating period, in conjunction with the planned T pulse schedule providing fueling of 4 g T injected per d…

Post mortem analysis shows that mid and high atomic number metallic impurities are present in deposits on JET plasma facing components with the highest amount of Ni and W, and therefore the largest sink, being found at the top of the inner divertor. Sources are defined as “continuous” or “specific”, in that “continuous” sources…

JET has now completed three operating periods, ILW1, ILW2 and ILW3, giving an opportunity to make comparisons between tiles exposed for single operating periods and also comparisons of tiles exposed for all three periods, ILW1-3 (2011-2016). In this contribution, a comprehensive overview of fuel retention and material erosion/deposition patterns…
