Abstract :
The vacuum vessel (VV) design is being finalized including interface components, such as the support rails and feedthroughs of coils for mitigation of edge localized modes (ELM) and vertical stabilization (VS) of the plasma (ELM/VS coils). It was necessary to make adjustments in the locations of the blanket supports and manifolds to accommodate the design modifications in the ELM/VS coils. The lower port gussets were reinforced to keep a sufficient margin under the increased VV load conditions. The VV support design is being finalized as well, with an emphasis on structure simplification. The design of the in-wall shielding (IWS) has progressed, considering assembly and required tolerances. The layout of ferritic steel plates and borated steel plates will be optimized based on on-going toroidal field ripple analysis. The VV instrumentation was defined in detail. Strain gauges, thermocouples, displacement meters and accelerometers shall be installed to monitor the status of the VV in normal and off-normal conditions to confirm all safety functions are performed correctly. The ITER VV design was preliminarily approved, and the VV materials including 316L(N) IG were already qualified by the Agreed Notified Body (ANB) according to the procedure of Nuclear Pressure Equipment Order.
