Presentation Transcript

  1. EURATOM - MEdC Structure, joining the Association, perspectives CONTENT EFDA ITER Association MEdC Adaptation of the Fusion Programme

  2. EFDA Basics: fusion science fusion technology JET experiments Topical Groups Task Forces Boards, meetings, conferences ITPA (International Tokamak Physics Activity)

  3. JET reaction chamber

  4. JET reaction chamber: right picture – optical recording of a plasma discharge

  5. Scientific problems of high relevance for the present state of fusion physics Plasma physics instabilities, turbulence, transport MHD instabilities L to H transition Edge Localized Modes Internal Transport Barriers Plasma heating Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating ECRH Neutral Beam Injection LH (current profile) Plasma rotation poloidal rotation toroidal rotation

  6. Scientific problems of high relevance for the present state of fusion physics (2) Numerical simulations plasma confinement gyrokinetics everything Plasma scenarios bootstrap controlled density limit (Grunewald) q-profile (advanced tokamak) Diagnostics IR (density) Thompson scattering (Te) Magnetic coils (Mirnov) nuclear and Data Materials IFMIF EVEDA (all) + Supraconductibility Reactor regime

  7. Result of gyrokinetic calculations

  8. Better results: heating + scenarios ( + knowledge + luck)

  9. Minimal procedure to join the fusion research with EFDA • Non – EFDA Call • Collaboration with a principal fusion centre (preferable, not mandatory) • Contact the Topical Group Leader • Write the proposal as for Scientific Assessment and • Submit the project to the MEdC Association via Steering Committee • EFDA Call • Formulate the proposal within the EFDA requests • get familiar with the work of other possible participants • add publications, details • Evaluate the PPY (cost + duration) • Evaluate the need for preferential support • Send to MEdC Association • Don’t expect miracles

  10. ITER International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor Site: Cadarache (France) First plasma : 2018 Cost: unknown High commitment: Europe, Japan, China, Korea, India, Russia, USA Fusion for Energy European Domestic Agency for Fusion, F4E (Barcelona)

  11. ITER main components

  12. R&D projects in support of ITER

  13. F4E calls usually lead to Consortia of Association

  14. Procedure to join a project for ITER • Watch the F4E calls • Strong connection with a major team in that field • Proposal sent in bilateral form to collaborators • Creation of a Consortium of Association • Work for the Project to be submitted to F4E • Expect hard competition The Association MEdC is never informed by F4E about a Call. Participation to F4E can be made : 1. via the Association (in Consortia) 2. on institutional “individual” basis Two projects: Nuclear Data (via IFIN-HH) and ITER Tritium Plant (IO) ICSI via Association MEdC

  15. Association EURATOM-MEdC Fondata in 1999 Documente de baza: Contract of Association European Fusion Development Agreement JET Implementing Agreement Mobility Agreement 4 Institute si 3 Universitati In 2008 staff: 85 persoane (27 ppy) Web page: http://www.ifa-mg.ro/euratom + Sign In

  16. Reports on Scientific Priorities Task Agreements EFDA Work Program EFDA Calls (ex. TG) Task Agreements Work Plan Association MEdC Contract ANCS - IFA Contract IFA- Institute

  17. List of activities and Task Agreements WP 2009

  18. Obligatiile Directorului de Proiect • Planul de lucru • Task Agreement-ul (PMP, ITD, Notification, Order) • Contractul intern (cu IFA) • Managementul fondurilor (Devize, etc.) • Rapoarte stiintifice, • Steering Committee, Boards, incl. Annual report • Faze Contracte interne • Rapoarte financiare • Devize postcalcul • Rapoarte Comisie (Sem. + Annual) • Acte aditionale • Annual Accounts, Contract Monitoring, Staff

  19. SurselebugetuluiAsociatiei EURATOM - MEdC ANCS; Volumul finantarii este precizat prin Contractul ANCS - IFA Comisia Europeana; Volumul finantarii este fixat prin Contract of Association (+ Amendments) • Comisiarecunoastedouatipuri de cheltuieli ale Asociatiei: • Eligibile: necesareAsociatieisi la care participa • Ne-Eligibile: necesareAsociatiei, dar la care NU participa (Ex: TVA, taxe, o parte din Overhead-uri)

  20. Finantarea de catreComisiaEuropeanasi de catre EFDA /JET a Task Agreement-urilor EFDA / JET – Associatia EURATOM MEdC • Campanii experimentale JET (Art.6.3) • Order de Campanie (Jet Fund) 100% • Notificare de Campanie 20% + 80% • Enhancement Project EP2 JET • Notificare de Proiect (anterior 5.1b) 40% + 60% • Order de Proiect (Jet Fund +Comisia) 100% • Misiuni pentru Proiect 100%

  21. Structuraverificariiprofesionale TG, EFDA Work Programme + JET Work Programme, Calls Task Agreements (Contracte Comisie – Association MEdC): Rapoarte intermediare Rapoarte finale Project Board Meetings Work Plan al Association MEdC : Steering Committee Aprobarea WP de catre Comisia Europeana Annual Report pe pagina web a Comisiei Europene Monitorizare profesionala: EFDA Steering Committee STAC (Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee) CCE-FU Meetings ale Head of Research Units

  22. Structura verificarii financiare Task Agreements Order: Individual Task description (Sume, termene) Notificari: Project Management Plan (Sume, termene) Project Board Meetings Bugetul Asociatiei Steering Committee Annual Accounts Indicative Outturn Contract Monitoring Mobilities Steering Committee Comisia, prin Plan si Raport

  23. Secventa verificarii financiare Situatiafinaciara se trimite TRIMESTRIAL la ComisaEuropeana Postcalcule la Contractele IFA – Institute Annual Accounts, Contract Monitoring, Staff Se invitadouapersoane de la CE Directoratul J, de la Finante Se face Audit de catre o firma agreata de CE Se transmiteCertificatul de Audit la CE Dupa 45 zile se aprobasi se pot formula CALL for FUNDS

  24. Adaptation of the Fusion Programme • Strong orientation of activities toward ITER • Apply for F4E projects • Budget of Associations will probably be half in 2010 compared with 2009 (*) • Severe reduction of Baseline and JET Notifications in 2010 (*) Fusion is approx. 90% of Euratom budget Visits of two experts (16 – 17 june 2009) Negociation of Association’ s WP : September 2009 JET: no experimental Campaigns during Enhancements
