This paper presents the design criteria and the preliminary characteristics of the power supply and electrical systems of the Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) facility. The power supply system has to feed: 6 superconducting modules of the central solenoid, 6 poloidal field superconducting coils, 18 toroidal field superconducting coils designed for a current up to 50 kA, some coils for plasma fast control and vertical stabilization, the electron (ECRH) and ion (ICRH) cyclotron additional heating systems designed to deliver about 25 MW to the plasma, further 20 MW to the plasma generated by a neutral beam injector (NBI) and all the auxiliary systems and services. The analysis was carried out on a reference scenario with a plasma current of 6 MA, mainly to estimate the electrical power needed to operate the facility, but also to identify some design choices and component ratings.

Abstract

This paper presents the design criteria and the preliminary characteristics of the power supply and electrical systems of the Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) facility. The power supply system has to feed: 6 superconducting modules of the central solenoid, 6 poloidal field superconducting coils, 18 toroidal field superconducting coils designed for a current up to 50 kA, some coils for plasma fast control and vertical stabilization, the electron (ECRH) and ion (ICRH) cyclotron additional heating systems designed to deliver about 25 MW to the plasma, further 20 MW to the plasma generated by a neutral beam injector (NBI) and all the auxiliary systems and services. The analysis was carried out on a reference scenario with a plasma current of 6 MA, mainly to estimate the electrical power needed to operate the facility, but also to identify some design choices and component ratings.
