Abstract :
Detailed tritium profiles on the JAERI Tokamak-60U (JT-60U) W-shaped divertor and the first wall tiles were examined by a tritium imaging plate technique (TIPT) and full combustion method. The highest tritium level (60 kBq/cm2) was observed at the dome top tiles. The tritium level of the divertor target was lower (2 kBq/cm2). The result of the triton deposition simulation using orbit following Monte-Carlo code was consistent with the tritium distribution obtained by TIPT and full combustion method. These results indicate that the tritium distribution of the JT-60U W-shaped divertor reflects mainly the distribution of the energetic triton impinging on the wall. According to the simulation, the tritium atoms produced by D–D nuclear reaction in JT-60U are not loosing completely their initial energy of 1 MeV and around 1/3 of them are implanted into the wall.
