High-speed injection of pellets, composed of frozen hydrogen isotopes and multimillimeter
in size, is commonly used for core fueling of magnetically confined plasmas for controlled …

During the last 10 to 15 years, significant progress has been made worldwide in the area of
pellet injection technology. This specialized field of research originated as a possible …

The technical implementation of the potentially very efficient inboard pellet refueling scheme
in tokamaks remains so far restricted to low velocities (v 200–300 m/s) due to the fragile …

Injection of solid hydrogen pellets from the magnetic high-field side will be the primary
technique for depositing fuel particles into the core of International Thermonuclear …

A centrifugal pellet injector and a guide tube for magnetic high-field side (HFS) injection
were developed in JT-60U. The injector can eject trains of up to 40 cubic (1.9 mm) 3 …

The pellet injection systems for the next-generation fusion devices (such as the International
Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) and future fusion reactors will have to provide …

The JET pellet centrifuge and flight tube system were modified during 1999 to incorporate an
in-vessel track to allow pellet launch from the inboard High Field Side (HFS) of the magnetic …

The benefits of deep plasma fueling by pellet injection have been widely demonstrated in
several toroidal-magnetic confinement experiments, achieving enhanced fusion power …

High-speed injection of solid fuel was first proposed in 1954 as a possible solution to the
problem of transporting fresh fuel across the confining magnetic fields into the plasma of a …

The pellet fueling system on DIII-D has been modified for injection of deuterium pellets from
two vertical ports and two inner wall locations on the magnetic high-field side (HFS) of the …
