Integration of DEMO hazard piping into the tokamak building

Abstract Because of the complexity of the design of a Fusion Power Plant like the EU DEMOnstration power plant the study of the plant layout must proceed in parallel with the design of the major systems. This is necessary to ensure that the design of the plant incorporates from the very beginning sound considerations on: • Safety and licensing, • Personnel security in context with operation and maintenance, • Adequate plant availability, and • Safe performance operation including delivery of few hundred MW net electric power to the electrical grid. Though it is a process of trial and change that follows the design evolution, this approach allows a better and continuous control of the numero…
