Physics requirements on fuel throughput in ITER

The throughput requirements that the ITER fuelling system must satisfy are estimated considering the major system functions. The ELM pace-making and control of the divertor power loading are found to be the most demanding. The total required throughput makes the basis for the design limitations of 2...

Summary:The throughput requirements that the ITER fuelling system must satisfy are estimated considering the major system functions. The ELM pace-making and control of the divertor power loading are found to be the most demanding. The total required throughput makes the basis for the design limitations of 200Pam3/s.
