Abstract

The design activity of JT-60SA (JT-60 Super Advanced) addresses the remodeling of JT-60 to a superconducting tokamak device under the JA-EU collaborative ITER–BA project. For the JT-60SA control system, the existing system should be reused as much as possible from the viewpoint of cost-effectiveness. Initial considerations of the configuration of the advanced supervisory control system (SVCS) including the following systems are: (1) an ultimate flexibility real-time control system, (2) a precision timing system able to diagnose a plasma event having a time range of ∼1 μs, and (3) a safety shutdown control system. In this report, we present the design study of the JT-60SA SVCS with the focus on the above systems.
