Abstract: For safe operation with active water cooling plasma facing components (PFCs) to handle a large input power over a long pulse discharge, some design optimization, R&D and maintenance were accomplished to improve the in-vessel components. For the purpose of large plasma current (1 MA) operation, the previous separated top and bottom passive stabilizers in the low field were electrical connected to stabilize plasma in the case of vertical displace events (VDEs). The design and experiments are described in this pa… Show more

“…A fast setup means that the robot is capable to be used in the first couple of days of experiment intervals while the in-vessel temperature is still high (100 • C level). It helps people to understand early and well on: (1) what have happened in-vessel, especially for physical phenomenon, (2) whether to perform maintenance or to continue scheduled experiments directly, and (3) precise location of the place needs to repair/replace. It enhances an efficient way to fusion research; the intervals could also be shortened consequently.…”

“…The first Experimental Advanced Superconducting TOKAMAK (EAST) was built in Hefei city of China in 2006 [1], and has been keeping in experimental operation for years. It was reported that the plasma facing components (PFCs) [2], namely, the main parts of first wall in vessel, were partially damaged in some local areas due to the high energy particles and electromagnetic force, and had been optimized and upgraded to full graphite tiles bolted to copper alloy heat sinks from 2008 [1].…”
