When the ITER Organization made the key decision in 2023 to change the armour tiles of the plasma chamber from beryllium to tungsten, it meant adding a new wall conditioning system to buffer the ...

This year’s school focused on the integrated modelling of magnetic fusion plasmas. Reliable predictions of ITER plasmas, spanning the entire cross-section from the plasma core, the scrape-off layer, ...

The steel structure that's being erected against the northeast side of the Assembly Hall is for a large building that will be densely packed with power supplies and energy convertors designed to ...

On 21 September, a ceremony was held at Western Superconducting Technologies (WST) in Xi'an, China, to mark the completion of the final batch of niobium-tin (Nb3Sn) superconducting strands for ITER's ...

The European Domestic Agency has awarded contracts for the fabrication of three full-size prototypes of the blanket first wall, an important next step in the qualification of the first wall panels ...

The design followed the standard system engineering methodology developed for diagnostics and implemented in compliance with the Plant Control Design Handbook (see insert below), utilizing CODAC Core ...

Several batches of magnet feeder components will arrive from China in September containing elements that need to be received, inspected and readied for installation early in the ITER assembly schedule ...

As delegates from three continents convened on ITER Headquarters for the 36th Meeting of the ITER Council, construction teams were exiting the tokamak assembly theatre after a long night of work. The ...

During a test operation earlier this month, a wrapped toroidal field coil was lifted by the gantry crane and its bespoke attachment. The different elements of the ITER magnet cold test facility are ...

The power supply system is a vital part of electron cyclotron heating and current drive—the system at ITER designed for plasma initiation, heating, and control. Tests are underway now to prepare the ...

This integrated plant simulator will serve several purposes. By precisely mimicking the behaviour of the scientific installation in both normal and incidental conditions, it will help validate all ...
