Title :
Conceptual design of SST-1 tokamak
fDate :
30 Sep-5 Oct 1995
Abstract :
The superconducting steady-state tokamak (SST) will have major and minor radii of 1.05 m and 0.20 m respectively. The TF and PF coils will be superconducting (NbTi), while the ohmic transformer and correction coil system will be made of copper. Steady-state current drive, and also part of the current rampup, will be based on lower hybrid current drive (LHCD). ICRF and NBI will provide auxiliary heating. Fast vertical control will make use of saddle coils placed inside the vacuum vessel, while the PF coils will be used for shape control. The outer divertor will have a slot configuration to permit operation with high recycling and impurity injection
