Engineering Analysis for Vacuum Vessel of CFQS Quasi-Axisymmetric Stellarator

抄録

The world's first quasi-axisymmetric stellarator CFQS (China First Quasi-axisymmetric Stellarator) will be constructed as the joint project of National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) in Japan and Southwest Jiaotong University (SWJTU) in China [1]. Physics design of CFQS plasma was completed [2,3], and numerous efforts are now being made to finalize engineering design of CFQS [4]. The CFQS vacuum vessel (VV) will be made of thin plates of SUS316L with thickness of 6 mm. The thickness is determined by considering fabricability and manufacturing cost. In this report, analyses have been performed to confirm the structural reliability of VV and evaluate the influence of eddy current using finite element method software ANSYS/Mechanical^TM and ANSYS/Maxwell^TM.
