Abstract:Plasma burnthrough and current ramp-up phases in an SST-1 superconducting tokamak are simulated by the OOPS code. The main purpose of this study is to optimize the operation regime in SST-1 through the input parameter scan for OOPS for both successful and failed shots from the SST-1 database. SST-1 is now equipped with carbon plasma facing components (PFCs). Hence, PFCs are expected to offer a carbon dominated impurity environment. An electrically continuous vacuum vessel and cryostat hinder sufficient loop vo… Show more
