29. 11 th AFPA ITER In vessel Components P. Chappuis Guilin 1 st to 4 th Nov. 2011 Slide 29 Divertor: Proposal to Start with a full-W armour The original strategy was to start with a CFC/W divertor to be replaced with a full-W divertor before the nuclear phase. This strategy, which posed the lowest physics risks, requires the start of the construction of the 2 nd divertor set already during the construction phase of ITER. This can not be afforded any more. Either we extend operation of the CFC/W divertor into the nuclear phase of we start with a full-W divertor. The ITER licensing process does not foresee operation with CFC at the divertor target plates during the nuclear phase. A very important part of the licensing process, the Public Enquiry, has just been finished. Even a very limited operational period in DT on a CFC divertor, as has been proposed by STAC for the IO to consider in several occasions would require a modified safety file and a new public enquiry, with very uncertain results A strategy which assumes a simple continuation into DT operation with CFC, even for limited time is therefore impossible as things stand. A very important advantage is the significant cost savings of ~400 MEuro which provides a large proportion of the budget for investments including deferred procurement during the first 5 years of operation budget
