Start-up and disruption effects were estimated with a finite element transient em model based on a nominal performance, with superconducting PF coils and an internal copper TF coil machine, vacuum vessel. Several variations on wall thickness and materials were run to develop brackets on the electromagnetic effects due to design options under consideration. PF coil current profiles for start-up were based on a 60 s ramp time. Model variations were run covering different construction options which resulted in time delays to reach an equivalent flux (plasma loop voltage) level which ranged from 60 ma to 3.2 s. From this set, design configurations have time lags between the most likely 245 ms and 275 ms. considered acceptable in view of the long flux swing interval. This is A more de- tailed discussion is given in Section 2.0. The components which are influenced most by the rapid magnetic field change associated with a disruption are the first wall, limiter and vacuum vessel. The plasma was assumed to ramp linearly from - 10 MA to zero in 10 ms and the finite element model was used for several construction options in terms uity. of material thickness and toroidal electrical contin- The disruption induces toroidally directed or saddle type currents -2- current magnetic toroidal fields, loads which are in general, sheets.

This reduces the power requirements for the control coils. The analysis during this phase utilized a simplified model of the plasma and structures which led to the following preliminary conclusions. in 1. Active control coils are necessary and will require power the 0.1 to 10 NVA range depending on location; 2. The proximity and electrical continuity of the machine structures is sufficient for passive stabilization without addition of high conductivity elements to augment this effect.

Sev- eral cases were run with selected changes in features which could effect the eddy current patterns and magnitudes. 2.1 Model Description The PF coil locations used for this analysis (and for the disruption analysis in Section 3.0) are defined in Table 2.1-1. Field components along the first wall and vacuum vessel due to the PF coils at end. of burn are given in figures in Appendix A and used in Section 3.0 to determine part of the wall em loading following disruption. The amp-turn changes used for the start-up cases were based on a linear ramp from the values in the column labelled "start-up" to the values in the column labelled "start of burn" in 60 seconds. Figure 2.1-1 shows an outline of the regions used in the finite element model together with representative thicknesses, materials, and whether the region is capable of carrying a net current through the rzplane or whether it is a no-net region. capable of carrying current, The latter refers to a section but which is restricted to return the same 1 R.D.

Geometrically, represents a case with an internal vacuum vessel, a dewar surrounding the central solenoid and inner PF coils, and copper TF coils in stainless steel cases. The plasma was modelled as four nested regions with a speci- fied uniform current density in each region. Figure 2.1-2 shows the field lines produced by the PF coils at start of burn and the boundaries of the finite element plasma region. The close fit of the flux surfaces to the plasma region boundary is a good cross-check on model characteristics and adequate for the purposes of a study of this type.

Since the start-up flux swing is expected to occur on the 40 to 60 second time scale, this type of lag is probably not significant.

Note that even though the limiter is toroidally continuous in the model and copper, it is not initially dominant because, during start-up, the field penetration occurs from the outside of the vessel inward.

A com- parison with the previous two figures indicates that the primary impact is to reduce the current induced in the limiter. The start-up cases which have been run in this preliminary analysis imply that flux penetration to the plasma is acceptable and are useful as an indicator of the dominant components during this part of the operating scenario. -19- L I A A A A A A A A A A A A AA A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A II II I I A I' ~ I I A jI ,1 A A A A - A A A A - A A A A A .

However, the magnitude of the total saddle current for a no net region must be equal to the total toroidal current flow in one direction and are important since they interact with the toroidal field to produce equal and opposite loads on each end of the shell with the loads lying in rz-planes. The same saddle currents interact with the poloidal field and the eddy current fields to produce equal and opposite loads in the tor- oidal direction on each end of the segment. 3.2 Limiter Carrying Net Current This case is based on the configuration in Fig. 3.1-1 and the as- sumption that the limiter can carry net current in the toroidal direction. The latter may be expected to produce the maximum possible current in the limiter. The plasma current decays linearly to zero in 10 ms and the steadystate field pattern from the plasma which is shown in Fig. 3.1-2 changes as shown in Figs. 3.2-1 to 3.2-4 which correspond to times of 10, 30, 50, and 100 me, respectively. the figures shells are by "kinks" in the field essentially local discontinuities field.

The latter may be expected to produce much lower toroidal currents in the limiter than the previous case, but will result in saddle currents which are necessary to satisfy the no net restriction. -38- I ' * * - - I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I * I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .~ . , I , , I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I & I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I -.

If the first wall inboard and outboard are not net cur- rent carriers as assumed then the other components can be expected to respond faster than shown. Note that the limiter carries substantially less current than in the previous case (e.g., compare Fig. 3.3-6 with Fig. 3.2-6). The current sheet amplitude is shown in Fig. 3.3-7 as a function of distance along the first plane. wall measured from the inboard side in the z-o The plot is for the instant at 10 ms when the plasma current has just reached zero and shows relatively high currents along the first wall. The shaded region illustrates the current carried by the no net limiter. A similar plot at 30 ms is shown in Fig. 3.3-8 and indicates that the current in the limiter has increased somewhat. Plots of this type for the vacuum vessel are shown in Figs. 3.3-9 and 3.3-10 which are for 10 and 30 ms, respectively. Tables 3.3-1 this case and 3.3-2 summarize the mazimum currents and loads for together with the times at which they occur and their loca- tions keyed to the points identified in Fig. 3.1-1. In general, the peak -51- loads are uniformly lower for the no net limiter than for the net limiter (See Table 3.2-1). Similarly times at which the extrema occur are smaller. The point at which the peak loadings occur does not change significantly for the dewar, shield, and vacuum vessel.

The most effective locations for passive stabilization elements can be determined by first assuming that they are a pair of conducting loops symmetrically located relative to the z - o plane. Contours of constant effectiveness* for loop locations can then be superimposed on the normalized geometry of TFCX as illustrated in Fig. 4.0-1. This shows the most useful locations and the rapid degradation in passive stabilization ability with distance from the plasma. For this type of system it may be R.J. Thome, R.D. Pillsbury, Jr., D.B.

The contours were based on the use of a single pair of passive loops. They need not be toroidally continuous because of the up-down asymmetry of the required stabilization currents. Hence, saddle type currents (as shown in Fig. 4.0-2 which are induced in sectors which are not toroidally continuous may be expected to perform the same function to first order.

(2) Active coil locations further out from the plasma have power requirements which increase rapidly for equivalent plasma position return times. Coils at locations like A6 may have prohibitive power requirements depending on structural characteristics (e.g., presence of the box beam) or shield electrical conductivity. The figures show that AS requires more power than A6 which seems inconsistent with its relative position. subsequent However, cases shown in Fig. 4.0-6, which assumes no shield and no passive elements at P2 or P3, 1 implies that it is effectively shielded by these elements.

The model is preliminary in nature and requires the addition of considerably more elements as well as acter and other system constraints. further study of the feedback charIn addition, studies must be per- formed with models utilizing a distributed plasma current. -75- APPENDIX A - PF COIL FIELDS AT THE FIRST WALL AND VACUUM VESSEL give the components Figures A-1 and A-2 of the coils as a function of distance along the first plane.

This Appendix contains a selection of those distributions to allow an insight to be gained into the development of the pressure profiles along the first wall and vacuum vessel and the manner in which the profiles change with time. Figures are numbered in this Appendix according to the following outline. Each figure corresponds to a specific instant of time and they are grouped in sets giving profiles at t-10, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 ms. Cap- tions are not included on the figures since the required information is contained in the axis labels on each plot.

Figures are numbered in this Appendix according to the following outline. Each figure corresponds to a specific instant of time and they are grouped in sets giving profiles at t-10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 ms. Captions are not included on the figures since the required information is contained in the axis labels on each plot.
