  • Abstract
    During injection of neutral beams into the JET (Joint European Torus) Tokamak, there have been three occasions when damage to the water-cooled duct liner has occurred due to re-ionization within the duct region. As a result, improved duct protection and direct fast-response pressure gauges have been installed. The pressure measurements are analyzed in terms of a gas reemission coefficient, and results for various surface conditions have been obtained. The mechanical design of an improved duct protection system is also presented
