Spherical Tokamak ================= - This is characterized by a blanket that only goes around the outboard sides of the plasma and a center column that has no inboard breeding. Spherical tokamak ----------------- - The spherical_tokamak function provides a parametric tokamak shaped reactor. - This is characterized by a blanket that only goes around the outboard sides of the plasma. - This reactor allows for a separate vertical and radial build which allows different thickness layers in the blanket. .. cadquery:: :select: result :width: 100% :height: 600px import paramak result = paramak.spherical_tokamak( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 50), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], vertical_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 120), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 700), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 30), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), ], rotation_angle=180, triangularity=0.55, ).toCompound() Spherical tokamak from plasma ----------------------------- - The spherical_tokamak_from_plasma function provides a parametric tokamak shaped reactor. - This reactor requires minimal arguments to create as it keeps the vertical build of the blanket layers the same thickness as the radial build. .. cadquery:: :select: result :width: 100% :height: 600px import paramak result = paramak.spherical_tokamak_from_plasma( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 20), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 20), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 120), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], elongation=2, triangularity=0.55, rotation_angle=90, ).toCompound() Spherical tokamak with divertor ------------------------------- - Reactors support adding additional extra intersect shapes that can be used as a divertor. - This example adds a divertor to a spherical_tokamak_from_plasma reactor. .. cadquery:: :select: result :width: 100% :height: 600px import paramak from cadquery import Workplane # makes a rectangle that overlaps the lower blanket under the plasma # the intersection of this and the layers will form the lower divertor points = [(200, -700), (200, 0), (300, 0), (300, -700)] divertor_lower = Workplane('XZ', origin=(0,0,0)).polyline(points).close().revolve(180) result = paramak.spherical_tokamak_from_plasma( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 50), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], elongation=2, triangularity=0.55, rotation_angle=180, extra_intersect_shapes=[divertor_lower] ).toCompound() .. _spherical_custom_divertor: Spherical tokamak with custom divertor -------------------------------------- - The revolved_shape function builds a solid by revolving a custom 2D (R, Z, connection) profile. Here straight segments make a small V-shaped divertor plate. - This example adds the revolved shape directly to the reactor assembly with ``assembly.add``, rather than passing it to ``extra_intersect_shapes``. The plate therefore keeps its full shape and can sit anywhere inside the vessel, **outside the blanket envelope** — it is not clipped to the blanket. - For the alternative approach, where the revolved shape is intersected with the blanket so the divertor is confined to the blanket envelope, see the :ref:`tokamak_custom_divertor` example. .. cadquery:: :select: result :width: 100% :height: 600px import cadquery as cq import paramak # small V-shaped divertor plate from straight segments, sitting in the # lower cavity between the plasma and the lower blanket points = [ (160, -312, "straight"), (220, -336, "straight"), (280, -312, "straight"), (280, -330, "straight"), (220, -354, "straight"), (160, -330, "straight"), ] divertor = paramak.revolved_shape(points=points, rotation_angle=180, plane="XZ") result = paramak.spherical_tokamak_from_plasma( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 50), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 15), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], elongation=2, triangularity=0.55, rotation_angle=180, ) # add the divertor plate directly to the assembly so it is not clipped to the blanket result.add(divertor, name="divertor", color=cq.Color("red")) result = result.toCompound() Spherical tokamak with poloidal field coils ------------------------------------------- -

In a similar way to adding poloidal field coils one can also add toroidal field coils by making use of the extra_cut_shapes argument. - All reactors support adding a sequence of CadQuery shapes (e.g. workplanes) to the reactor using the extra_cut_shapes argument. - This example adds TF coils to a spherical_tokamak_from_plasma reactor but any other reactor would also work. - Also these are rectangle shaped TF coils but other shapes are also available. .. cadquery:: :select: result :width: 100% :height: 600px import paramak tf_style_1 = paramak.toroidal_field_coil_rectangle( horizontal_start_point = (10, 520), vertical_mid_point = (600, 0), thickness = 50, distance = 40, rotation_angle = 180, with_inner_leg = True, azimuthal_placement_angles = [0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180], ) result1 = paramak.spherical_tokamak_from_plasma( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 70), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], elongation=2.5, rotation_angle=180, triangularity=0.55, extra_cut_shapes=[tf_style_1] ).toCompound().translate((700, 0, 0)) tf_style_2 = paramak.toroidal_field_coil_princeton_d( r1=5, r2=610, azimuthal_placement_angles = [0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180], rotation_angle = 180, thickness = 50, distance = 40 ) result2 = paramak.spherical_tokamak_from_plasma( radial_build=[ (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 70), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 50), (paramak.LayerType.PLASMA, 300), (paramak.LayerType.GAP, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 60), (paramak.LayerType.SOLID, 10), ], elongation=2.5, rotation_angle=180, triangularity=0.55, extra_cut_shapes=[tf_style_2] ).toCompound().translate((-700, 0, 0)) import cadquery as cq result = cq.Assembly() result.add(result1, name="rectangular_tf") result.add(result2, name="princeton_d_tf") result = result.toCompound() Spherical tokamak with negative triangularity --------------------------------------------- -
