DTU engineers visit IPFN
Engineering activities for the design of the ITER collective Thomson scattering (CTS) diagnostics are gaining momentum. In the coming two days engineers from the Danish Technical University (DTU) are visiting IPFN to meet staff from the Group of Engineering and Systems Integration and from the Institute of Mechanical Engineering. The meeting will focus on the details of the engineering design of ITER Collective Thomson Scattering diagnostic.
The visit takes place in the scope of a 4-year framework agreement between F4E and a consortium comprising DTU and IST. Once installed at ITER, the CTS system will provide information about how fast ions from the fusion process behave, and how the balance between deuterium and tritium in the plasma affects the fusion efficiency.
