Coils cathode Arc Thomson Scattering H2 plasma Spectroscopy anode Pilot-PSI: experimental Coils 0.55 m Target Arc Spectroscopy Thomson Scattering
Density and temperature near the target 532nm Thomson Scattering at 17 mm from target 17 mm Scattered light analyzed spectrally and spatially resolved
Parameter range at target realized in Pilot >1023 H+/m2s >1024 H+/m2s >1025 H+/m2s • Gion = 0.6· ne· cs,i(Te) • Experimental knobs: • Source current & flow • Vessel pressure • Magnetic field • Target potential
Target calorimetry confirms flux from ne,Te Measured in target cooling water: 1.0 kW this is 10 MW/m2 ! 100 s exposure = 1027 H+/m2 !!! Integration of flux profile for B = 0.4 T gives total Gion: Gion= 3.2·1020 H+/s this is 40% of input gas flow! Flux corresponds to 1.0 kW power (assuming Eion+Ediss+5/2 k(Te+Ti) )
Exposure of carbon to 1026 H+/m2 • Target 5mm x 30mm, fine grain, Carbon SGL Group, R 6650 • Power to target cooling water: 0.9 kW • Thomson scattering: ne = 9±1·1019, Te = 4.0 ± 0.2 eV • 100 sec exposure time • Target grounded: 50 A net current Auger spectroscopy shows no target contamination IR spectrum indicates no excessive surface temp. Eroded crater < 5 mm; agrees with Ychem and no redeposition (~4 mm)
target H spectrometer (ADAS) (Hydkin) Ychem from spectroscopy Hg CH Hd
Pilot exposures compared to the Ychem curve To be considered: Calibration required by CH4 puffing Surface temperature unknown
Conclusions Pilot-PSI offers >1026 H+/m2 exposures at ne up to 2·1021 m-3 and Te up to 4 eV First Ychem determinations based on spectroscopy demonstrated for >1024 H+/m2s; in line with literature
