Description
The ITER machine is reaching a stage in which the design is in large part frozen. Nevertheless design changes are necessary in the procurement phase due to additional constraint linked to manufacturing techniques and/or cost containment. In this framework, the reference ITER scenario and the control system strategy are in continuous evolution. The aim is preserving the final goal of a 15 MA Q=10 burning plasma in ITER, which will require a careful optimization of the scenario in order to fully exploit the machine capabilities within the engineering limits which define and restrict the operational space available.
This paper presents a summary of the activities carried out within the EU-DA on the engineering optimization of the ITER plasma scenarios and of the magnetic plasma position control system strategy.
