Design Summary

Compared to a "standard tokamak", ARIES-ST power plant with low aspect ratio of 1.6 and high plasma elongation of 3.4 has very tall and skinny in-vessel components.

	TF height (m)	OB-shield height(m)
ARIES-I	10.57	9.0
ARIES-IV	14.43	9.2
ARIES-ST	28.0	18.5

Whole power core is supported from retractable beams and can be lowered by the telescopic cylinders.

The centerpost (CP) is physically independent from the high-temperature power core. It can be removed together with the power core or separately.

The configuration design provides a vertical access that enables the power core to be replaced effectively.

The configuration design also provides a closed containment for the radioactivity components and dusts.
