Abstract :
The ITER confinement is tailored to ITER technological constraints and ITER radiological and chemical hazards, while meeting the consensus environmental release limits adopted by the project. This paper summarizes the ITER confinement functional requirements, describes the confinement strategy for the ITER tokamak, and shows how the design meets the objectives
