Abstract
Electromagnetic (EM) analyses are carried out when designing fusion reactor components to verify that they withstand the EM loads developed during transient plasma events, thus ensuring their proper functioning.
A complete methodology has been developed to conduct EM analyses by creating algorithms to guide the analyst during the decisions and actions to be taken, from the selection of the case events and the calculation method to the validation of the final results. This methodology has been applied to the EM analyses of the ex-vessel components of the ITER diagnostic Wide-Angle Viewing System (WAVS) in its final design stage. The calculation method selected is the Spheres-Worst instant method, implemented with a 3D finite element model. The paper includes a verification analysis of the simplifications made and a method to optimize the resources needed for the EM analysis.
期刊介绍：
The journal accepts papers about experiments (both plasma and technology), theory, models, methods, and designs in areas relating to technology, engineering, and applied science aspects of magnetic and inertial fusion energy. Specific areas of interest include: MFE and IFE design studies for experiments and reactors; fusion nuclear technologies and materials, including blankets and shields; analysis of reactor plasmas; plasma heating, fuelling, and vacuum systems; drivers, targets, and special technologies for IFE, controls and diagnostics; fuel cycle analysis and tritium reprocessing and handling; operations and remote maintenance of reactors; safety, decommissioning, and waste management; economic and environmental analysis of components and systems.
