| Abstract: | The losses of high-energy particles from the plasma depend on the toroidal field (TF) ripple in Tokomak machine. TBM (test blanket module), using RAFM (reduced activation ferritic/martensitic) steels as structure material, impacts on TF ripple in International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The aim in this paper was to investigate the impact of TBM on TF ripple in ITER. It was analyzed based on ANSYS code and the Chinese DFLL (Dual Function Lithium Lead)-TBM as instances of analysis. The results indicated the TF ripple was still beyond the acceptable level of ITER (δTF < 0.3%) while considering several kinds of configurations (different masses, different dimensions, and different distances to plasma) of the DFLL-TBM. The correction coil might be one way to further reduce the effect on ripple of TF, and the ferromagnetic inserts under TF coil need to continue optimized. |
