“…With the density profile factor of α n = 0.634 and the temperature profile factor of α T = 0.702, we can see that our projection fits the DIII-D high equivalent D-T yield results [4] very well. When compared to the ARIES-RS [5] (SC, A=4) and ARIES-ST [6] (NC, A=1.6) physics projections, our results are more conservative. For the following calculations, in addition to the projected physics performance we also assumed a bootstrap fraction of 90%.…”
