Global analysis of tungsten migration in WEST discharges using numerical modelling Open
Plasma discharges in the tungsten (W) Environment Steady-state Tokamak (WEST) are strongly impacted by W contamination. In WEST experiments, due to W contamination, the power radiated in the plasma ( P Rad ) is on average, around 50% of th…

WEST full tungsten operation with an ITER grade divertor Open
The mission of WEST (tungsten-W Environment in Steady-state Tokamak) is to explore long pulse operation in a full tungsten (W) environment for preparing next-step fusion devices (ITER and DEMO) with a focus on testing the ITER actively coo…

Study of the erosion and redeposition of W considering the kinetic energy distribution of incident ions through a semi-analytical model Open
In today’s nuclear fusion devices, erosion of high-Z metallic plasma-facing materials (PFMs) is mainly caused by physical sputtering. That is, by the exchange of energy between plasma ions and the atoms in the walls. In most of the numeric…

Development of a Set of Synthetic Diagnostics for the Confrontation between 2D Transport Simulations and WEST Tokamak Experimental Data Open
Transport codes are frequently used for describing fusion plasmas with the aim to prepare tokamak operations. Considering novel codes, such as SolEdge3X-HDG, synthetic diagnostics are a common technique used to validate new models and conf…

Operating a full tungsten actively cooled tokamak: overview of WEST first phase of operation Open
WEST is an MA class superconducting, actively cooled, full tungsten (W) tokamak, designed to operate in long pulses up to 1000 s. In support of ITER operation and DEMO conceptual activities, key missions of WEST are: (i) qualification of h…
