  • The Cable-In-Conduit-Conductor (CICC) for the ITER tokamak Central Solenoid (CS) has undergone design change since the first prototype conductor sample was tested in 2010. After tests showed that the performance of initial conductor samples degraded rapidly without stabilization, an alternate design with shorter sub-cable twist pitches was tested and discovered to satisfy performance requirements, namely that the minimum current sharing temperature ($T_{cs}$) remained above a given limit under DC bias. With consistent successful performance of ITER CS conductor CICC samples using the alternate design, an attempt is made here to revisit the internal electromagnetic properties of the CICC cable design to identify any correlation with conductor performance. Results of this study suggest that there may be a simple link between the $Nb_3Sn$ CICC internal self-field and its $T_{cs}$ performance. The study also suggests that an optimization process should exist that can further improve the performance of $Nb_3Sn$ based CICC.

  • Japanese activities on fusion structural materials R&D have been well organized under the coordination of university programs and JAERI/NIMS programs more than two decades. Where, two categories of structural materials have been studied, those are; reduced activation martensitic/ferritic steels (RAFs) as reference material and vanadium alloys and SiC/SiC composite materials as advanced materials. The R&D histories of these candidate materials and the present status in Japan are reviewed with the emphasis on materials behavior under radiation damage. The importance of IFMIF and technology development for blanket R&D including ITER-TBRG activity is emphasized and the current status of those activities in Japan is also presented.

  • Roflumilast analogs are a group of drugs which act as selective photodiesterase (PDE-4) inhibitor for the treatment severe chronic pulmonary disease associated with chronic brochnonities. Structural identification of degradation products using high resolution mass spectrometry and theoretical investigation by density functional theory have been successfully carried out on roflumilast to identify four degradation products namely, 3,5-dichloropyridin-4-amine, N-(3,5-dichloropyridin-4-yl)-4-(difluoromethoxy)-3-hydroxy benzamide, N-(3,5-dichloropyridin-4-yl)-3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(difluoromethoxy) benzamide and 3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-N-(3,5-dichloro-1-oxidopyridin-4-yl)-4-(difluoro methoxy) benzamide, generated in alkali, acidic and oxidative conditions.

  • Large superconducting magnets such as ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Research) or KSTAR (Korean Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) magnet system adopted a cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) using a forced-flow cooling system. Main optimization criteria for the conductor design of superconducting magnet system are stability margin and CICC cooling requirements. A zero-dimensional method is applied for the calculation of stability and the conductor optimization. In order to increase conductor performance, three different strands, ITER HP-I and HP-II, and KSTAR HP-Ⅲ, are tested. The strand characteristics of KSTAR HP-Ⅲ are measured in the Samsung's PPMS and Jc measurement system, and applied for this study. Also, the strand diameters, 0.81 mm and 0.78 mm are considered for this study, due to design change. Based on this result, the proposed configuration of CICC has been fabricated.

  • ITER AC/DC Converter는 플라즈마 운전에서 기능적인 역할과 동작 모드에 따라 PF/CS, TF, CC Plant로 구분되어 동작하며 PF, CS, VS1 컨버터는 플라즈마 전류 발생, 증감, 형상제어, 위치제어를 하며 PCS(Plasma Control System), MRC(Master Controller)에 의해 제어된다. MRC는 상위 제어인 PCS와 LCC(Local Control Cubicle)의 Middle Ware Layer에서 여러 Linux Machine들과 복잡한 통신망으로 연결되어 초전도 코일 전류 Driver에 있어서 Control과 Soft Down을 위한 Real Time 제어 기능을 한다. 본 논문은 이러한 제어를 구현하기 위한 Linux Real Time Control Thread Design의 구성과 결과를 논의하고자 한다.

  • 본 논문에서는 국제 핵융합실험로 4상한 컨버터의 고장시 바이패스 운전전략에 대하여 서술하였다. ITER 4상한 컨버터들은 토카막 장치에서 발생되는 고온의 플라즈마를 제어하기 위해 강력한 자장을 형성한다. 그 외에도 컨버터 보호를 위하여 과전류, 과전압등의 여러 가지 고장에 대하여 보호동작을 해야한다. 보호동작 중 컨버터를 보호하기 위한 바이패스 동작에 대한 4가지 전략을 제안하였으며, 순환전류 구간에서 4가지 전략으로 바이패스 동작을 수행할 때의 결과를 실제 제어기와 RTDS를 연동하여 실험하여 각각의 장 단점을 비교하였다.
