- Summary:
- This paper presents the results of a test program currently being conducted at the PPPL (Princeton Plasma Physics Lab) to evaluate the design of an engineering-model valve to be used for controlling pulsed-feed tritium injection scenarios into the TFTR (TOKAMAK) torus. The test program is designed to characterize the performance of the valve and determine throughput modulation and repeatability. Testing is being performed primarily with helium gas, but the capability to test with argon, deuterium, and hydrogen gases is available in order to provide an adequate data base to extrapolate to the tritium case. The TFTR proposed tritium feed system line configurations have also been simulated to evaluate dynamic effects of the pulsed feed.
