Design and development of EC H&CD antenna mirrors for ITER

Takahashi, Koji; Kobayashi, Noriyuki*; Kasugai, Atsushi; Sakamoto, Keishi

Fusion Engineering and Design, 81(1-7), p.281 - 287, 2006/02

In the ITER, an EC H&CD steering antenna mirror was designed to reflect eight or nine 1MW-wave beams. The cross-section and thickness of the mirror are 250$$times$$360 mm$$^{2}$$ and 50mm, respectively. The thermal and stress analysis under the ITER condition show that the copper alloy(DSCu) mirror with stainless steel cooling tubes inside is considered acceptable. The EC H&CD antenna system for the ITER must have a dog-legged transmission lines so as to protect the diamond windows or superconducting magnets of a tokamak. A 90$$^{circ}$$ miter bend, which consists of waveguides and a reflection mirror, is required to make the structure. The mock-up of the mirror based on the ITER design was fabricated and the high power transmission experiment was carried out. The mm-wave transmission with power/pulse length 450kW/5.0sec, was demonstrated. The ohmic loss is estimated to be $$sim$$0.2%, which agrees with the calculation based on electrical resistivity of DSCu 2.0$$times$$10$$^{-8}$$$$Omega$$m.

Compact antenna for two-dimensional beam scan in the JT-60U electron cyclotron heating/current drive system

Moriyama, Shinichi; Kajiwara, Ken*; Takahashi, Koji; Kasugai, Atsushi; Seki, Masami; Ikeda, Yoshitaka; Fujii, Tsuneyuki; JT-60 Team

Review of Scientific Instruments, 76(11), p.113504_1 - 113504_6, 2005/11

A compact antenna has been designed and fabricated to enable millimeter wave beam scan in the toroidal and the poloidal directions of the JT-60U Tokamak, for electron cyclotron heating (ECH) and current drive (ECCD) experiments. It consists of fast movable flat mirror mounted on the Tokamak vacuum vessel, and rotary focusing mirror attached at the end of the waveguide supported from outside of the vacuum vessel. This separate support concept enables compact structure in the shallow port (0.68 m $$times$$ 0.54 m $$times$$ 0.2m) sharing with a sub-port for an independent diagnostic system. The flat mirror is driven during a shot by a servo-motor with a 3 m long drive shaft to refuse influence of the high magnetic field to the motor. The focusing mirror is rotated by a simple mechanism with a push rod and an air cylinder. The antenna has been operated reliably for 3 years after small improvement in the rotary mechanism. It has been contributing ECH and ECCD experiments especially current profile control, in JT-60U.
