Design criteria
Visited ORNL where we discussed design criteria with Milora, Gouge
- with PPPL and ORNL, developed a set of preliminary design criteria for evaluating HTS in tokamaks
- Decided on a matrix with three HTS options:
- HTS with conventional magnets (winding and structure)
- No change in the tokamak “product”
- HTS with HTS tapes on the structure, conventional structure
- Shells as in ARIES-RS with HTS on structure surface, much cheaper unit cost ($25-50/kg for magnets)
- HTS with unconventional structure (demountable, cryogenic shield concept)
