Chapter 3Electromagnetic, Structural and Thermal Analyses of the Vacuum Vessel

Song, Yuntao; Wu, Weiyue; Xu, Weiwei; Liu, Xufeng; Liu, Sumei

Pages: 47 –98

[This chapter deals with the electromagnetic (EM), structural, and thermal analyses of the vacuum vessel (VV) of Tokamaks. First, the structure, the basic functions, and operation circumstance of VV are introduced. The VV, which is one of the key components, will have to withstand not only the EM...
