The scope of the EUFOfusion Work Package Breeding Blanket is to develop a blanket
concept for the EU DEMO reactor; this includes the blanket segments inside the Vacuum …

The EU conducted the pre-conceptual design (PCD) phase of the demonstration reactor
(DEMO) during 2014–2020 under the framework of the EUROfusion consortium. The current …

The water-cooled lead lithium breeding blanket (WCLL BB) is one of two BB candidate
concepts to be chosen as the driver blanket of the EU-DEMO fusion reactor. Research …

Off-normal macroscopic plasma instabilities which possibly occur in a fusion power plant
represent the most critical operational accidents and pose a serious risk to economically …

This article describes the DEMO cryostat, the vacuum vessel, and the tokamak building as
well as the system configurations to integrate the main in-vessel components and auxiliary …

Abstract The MEMENTO (MEtallic Melt Evolution in Next-step TOkamaks) code is a new
numerical implementation of the physics model originally developed for the MEMOS-U code …

The plasma design point during stationary phase operation of EU-DEMO has been
described extensively in the past, and the assumptions employed for its definition have been …

New generations of fusion devices need alternative plasma-facing materials. The currently
approved material composition for the first wall and divertor of the ITER tokamak has a …

We have developed the pulsed plasma operation scenarios for JA DEMO, a design concept
of the steady-state tokamak demonstration reactor, to clarify controls of the current profile …

The divertor design and configuration define the power exhaust capabilities of DEMO, and
act as a major design driver. They set a number of requirements on the tokamak layout …
