Abstract
The study is an analysis of the strength properties of a unique diagnostic system called Upper Vertical Neutron Camera (UVNC) under the loads of various nature. The UVNC includes a DN10 water cooling system, six detector units, electrical feedthroughs, and cables. Combinations of mechanical, thermal, seismic and electromagnetic loads were considered. The implementation of multiphysical processes is carried out in ANSYS Software, and the previously obtained data on electromagnetic and seismic loads, as well as thermal fields in Normal Operation and Baking modes are used in this study as initial data for mechanical formulations. The results of the structural analysis demonstrate a sufficient margin of safety of the main structural elements of the model while maintaining operational properties. In the article described and justified totally new design of developing system under extreme neutron fluxes, high thermal loads, and combined mechanical stresses, taking into account all the unique operational factors of the ITER facility.
