  • Abstract
    The HT-7U superconducting tokamak is an advanced steady-state plasma physics experimental device to be built at the Institute of Plasma Physics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP). HT-7U have a long pulse (60-1000 s) capability, a flexible PF system, and auxiliary heating and current drive systems, and will be able to accommodate divertor heat loads that make it an attractive test for the development of advanced tokamak operating modes. Now, the engineering design of the HT-7U device is in progress. The engineering design incorporates the superconducting toroidal field (TF) and poloidal field (PF) magnets, the vacuum vessel, the thermal shields, the cryostat and the current leads. This paper provides an overview of the HT-7U design emphasizing developments in the device design during the past year
