2 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid Introduction - Evaluation of hydrogenic retention in present tokamaks is of high priority to establish a database for ITER (400 sec ~ 7min…10-20 sec today). T-retention constitutes an outstanding problem for ITER operation particularly for the choice of the materials (carbon ?) - A retention rate of 10% of the T injected in ITER would lead to the in- vessel mobilisable T-limit (350 g) in 35 pulses. - Retention rates of this order (~10-20%) or higher are regularly found using gas balance in C-wall tokamaks. - Retention rate ~5 times lower are obtained using post mortem analysis - Are these two methods reliable to evaluate the retention and is it possible to understand why they lead to different results ? - SEWG to clarify Gas Balance vs post mortem analysis

3 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid physics: material erosion, migration & fuel retention QMB measurements Spectroscopy Gas balance measurements Deposition probes 13 C migration Post mortem tile analysis D,T Mechanisms for fuel retention Two basic mechanisms for Long term fuel retention Deep Implantation, Diffusion/Migration, Trapping C, Be C, Be, D,T In carbon wall devices codeposition dominates retention (also expected for Be wall conditions, JET ILW, ITER) Codeposition Short term retention (Adsorption: dynamic retention) Recovered by outgasing in between discharges

Higher recycling and ELM Enhanced carbon erosion and transport leading to stronger carbon deposition and fuel codeposition

7 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid ELM induced C deposition Non-linear dependence of carbon erosion on ELM energy thermal decomposition of surface layers and favourable geometry rapidly increases QMB deposition Can explains high deposition rates on water-cooled louvres during JET DT experiments high T-retention A Kreter, G Esser et al

8 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid Particle Balance summary on JET - Long term retention increases from L-mode to H-mode Increased C erosion and transport due to increased recycling and effect of ELMs enhanced C erosion enhanced co-deposition and retention. - Recovery between pulses (short term retention) always constant within a factor ~2 – in the range D Independent of discharge type, ELM energy, quantity of injected particles Pulse type Heating phase (s) Divertor phase (s) Injection (Ds -1 ) Long term retention (Ds -1 ) ret / inj L-mode81126 ~ ~10% Type III ~ ~20% Type I3250 ~ ~17%

15 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid Summary DITS experimental campaign : successfully completed 13 C carbonisation / 11 B boronisation performed 5h of plasma w/o conditionning : 1 year of operation in 2 weeks Reliable operation (LH, cooling loops, PFCs) Main limit : UFOs disruptions operational limit ? 80 % of the objective reached (WI = D or ~11g) : ok for qualitative and quantitative analysis Particle balance No wall saturation, retention proportional to discharge duration. Exhausted gas dominated by D during the shots Disruptions at low Ip, long term recovery : negligible in the balance DITS project on tracks : TPL sector dismantled, selected fingers extracted samples available for analysis ~ november 2007

19 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid Gas Balance summary from AUG in W -Gas Balance is needed to verify the benefit of full tungsten wall. -Support from EU TF on PWI to investigate gas balance, but support more difficult from man power point of view. -However, experiments performed and detailed analysis to start soon. -Data set exits, but direct comparison with C is very difficult due to different plasma scenario. -Accuracy is dominated by pumping of cryo pump. - Due to the high gas puffing rate (>10 22 Ds -1 ), an accuracy of ~1% is required in AUG. Improvement of the accuracy by adding a separated volume to store all the gas (as in AGHS in JET) V Rohde et al.

34 Th LoarerGas balance and fuel retention – EU TF on PWI – 29 October 2007 Madrid Summary & Comparison Gas balance-Post mortem - Post mortem analysis confirm that the long term retention in the PFCs is low. AUG (~4% in C, less in W), JET (~3-4%), TEXTOR and TS (DITS) ~8% - Post mortem analysis is representative of the averaged over a campaign of a small area (difficult for extrapolation: flakes in JET during DTE ): cumulative effects of thermal release (plasma ops.), GDC, disruptions, ….. (eg JET Averaged power with MkIIGB~4MW, and averaged fuel rate ~5x10 21 Ds -1 in 2007) - Retention in PFCs, mainly in the divertor (30% Outer leg/ 70% inner leg) - Retention in gaps always associated to carbon, typical length ~4mm Gas balance: Long term retention evaluated in the range 10-20% for carbon machine. Analysis generally carried out for plasma conditions different from averaged Retention increases with recycling (gas/NBI injection) and the ELMs (Type III to Type I) eg interesting pulse~5 times the average JET ~15-20MW, and fuel rate ~2.5x10 22 Ds -1 Long term recovery between pulses is negligible in the overall balance Gas balance or Post mortem analysis: Carbon leads to high retention Further results and experiments (main) - AUG: analysis of the retention in a full W machine answer to the question of C - Tore Supra: DITS project Where is the D trapped ? In the carbon structure ? - JET: Preparation of the ILW (no carbon), reference pulses to be quantify in Carbon - Complementary experiments of post mortem analysis
