The design, analysis and alignment of EAST divertor

The divertor of EAST is composed of inner-target, outer-target and dome. Every kind of target has 16 separate modules along toroidal direction. The structure of divertor includes support, heat sink and the first wall graphite. The shape and dimension of divertor are optimized for flexible operation of different elongation and triangularity of plasma. The eddy current and halo current interact with high toroidal magnetic field will produce large forces on divertor, so the structure of divertor must bear these electromagnetic forces. The first wall of divertor must have high assembly accuracy of 0.5 mm. The traditional method using optical instruments to survey directly is impractical because of the especial location of divertor. The benchmark templet integrates with optical instruments to align the divertor is proved simple and effective.
