"Thermographic Investigation of the Effect of Plasma Exposure on the Surface ofa MAST Upgrade Divertor Tile in Magnum-PSI"
24th International Conference on Plasma Surface Interactions in Controlled Fusion Devices (PSI), South Korea, 24 - 29 January 2021

M J Dunn T W Morgan J W Genuit T Loewenhoff A J Thornton K J Gibson the Magnum-PSI team

One of the issues faced by future fusion devices will be high target heat loads. Alternative divertors are a potential solution to the heat loads. They have been investigated in TCV and DIII-D, and will be investigated on MAST-U. To evaluate their effectiveness, accurate target heat flux and power balance measurements are required in these machi…

Verhaegh J. Vicente N. Walkden W. Zhang E. Wolfrum the ASDEX Upgrade Team the TCV team the EUROfusion MST1 Team

A detailed cross-device investigation on the role of filamentary dynamics in high density regimes has been performed within the EUROfusion framework comparing ASDEX-Upgrade (AUG) and TCV tokamaks. Both devices have run density ramp experiments at different levels of plasma current, keeping toroidal field or q95 constant in order to disentangle the …
