摘要：For the Chinese-ADS project, to provide enough neutrons to drive the subcritical system, tens of MW spallation targets for the C-ADS are necessary. This is not an easy task. Here we propose a new concept for a gravity-driven dense granular flow target, in which heavy metal grains are chosen as the spallation target material. Compared with currently widely used targets, this conceptual design has advantages with regard to heat removal, thermal shock protection, neutron yield, radiotoxicity reduction, and convenient operation. The gravity-driven dense granular flow target has the potential to easily deal with these issues and to form a foundation for tens of MW spallation targets for cost-effective facilities. Preliminary simulations and experiments have been completed to support this conceptual design.

摘要：Vertical displacement event（VDE） is a big challenge to the existing tokamak equipment and that being designed. As a Chinese next-step tokamak, the Chinese fusion Engineering Test Reactor（CFETR） has to pay attention to the VDE study with full-fledged numerical codes during its conceptual design. The tokamak simulation code（TSC） is a free boundary time-dependent axisymmetric tokamak simulation code developed in PPPL, which advances the MHD equations describing the evolution of the plasma in a rectangular domain. The electromagnetic interactions between the surrounding conductor circuits and the plasma are solved self-consistently. The TokSys code is a generic modeling and simulation environment developed in GA. Its RZIP model treats the plasma as a fixed spatial distribution of currents which couple with the surrounding conductors through circuit equations. Both codes have been individually used for the VDE study on many tokamak devices, such as JT-60U, EAST, NSTX, DIII-D, and ITER. Considering the model differences, benchmark work is needed to answer whether they reproduce each other＇s results correctly. In this paper, the TSC and TokSys codes are used for analyzing the CFETR vertical instability passive and active controls design simultaneously. It is shown that with the same inputs, the results from these two codes conform with each other.

摘要：The SC200 proton therapy superconducting cyclotron was developed by ASIPP (Hefei, china) and JINR (Dubna, Russia). A measurement system was designed to assess the average radial component of the magnetic field (Brav) with 15 search coils in the median plane. The winding differences of the search coils affect the measurement accuracy of the Brav. Based on the electromagnetic induction principle, to measure the Brav accurately, this paper focuses on the design and commissioning of the Brav measurement system. The preliminary results confirm that the system design is reasonable and suitable. After testing the search coil at different speeds, the optimal speed was determined as 2.5 mm/s. The relative error was approximately 0.1% under the maximum radial component of the magnetic field Br of 7 G. The measurement precision was up to 1.0×10^-3, which can provide the required measurement tolerance of 3–7 G for Br in the median plane. The commissioning of the Brav measurement system is an important step for Br measurement. It can check and adjust the asymmetry of the superconducting coils (SCs).

摘要：On the experimental advanced superconducting tokamak(EAST), a pair of voltage and current probes(V/I probes) is installed on the ion cyclotron radio frequency transmission lines to measure the antenna input impedance, and supplement the conventional measurement technique based on voltage probe arrays. The coupling coefficients of V/I probes are sensitive to their sizes and installing locations, thus they should be determined properly to match the measurement range of data acquisition card. The V/I probes are tested in a testing platform at low power with various artificial loads. The testing results show that the deviation of coupling resistance is small for loads RL?>?2.5 Ω, while the resistance deviations appear large for loads RL?<?1.5 Ω, which implies that the power loss cannot be neglected at high VSWR. As the factors that give rise to the deviation of coupling resistance calculation, the phase measurement error is the more significant factor leads to deleterious results rather than the amplitude measurement error. To exclude the possible ingredients that may lead to phase measurement error, the phase detector can be calibrated in steady L-mode scenario and then use the calibrated data for calculation under H-mode cases in EAST experiments.
