Abstract
First, a 2D field-mapping tool is used together with a simple model to take into account the peaking factors present on an engineering 3D wall design. A sensitivity analysis is performed on a set of realistic FW 3D features considering a preliminary estimate of misalignments. The impact on the heat flux to the wall due to different machine geometries, plasma shapes variation, stationary plasma and plasma transients, is presented. An automatic procedure to define the 2D poloidal contour of the FW for minimized particle loads is presented. A subset of the resulting engineering wall design is analyzed using the 3D field line tracing code PFCflux.
