Approaching the Final Design of ITER Control System | 490 |
|
||
| The control system of ITER (CODAC) is subject to a final design review early 2014, with a second final design review covering high-level applications scheduled for 2015. The system architecture has been established and all plant systems required for first plasma have been identified. Interfaces are being detailed, which is a key activity to prepare for integration. A built to print design of the network infrastructure covering the full site is in place and installation is expected to start next year. The common software deployed in the local plant systems as well as the central system, called CODAC Core System and based on EPICS, has reached maturity providing most of the required functions. It is currently used by 55 organizations throughout the world involved in the development of plant systems and ITER controls. The first plant systems are expected to arrive on site in 2015 starting a five-year integration phase to prepare for first plasma operation. In this paper, we report on the progress made on ITER control system over the last two years and outline the plans and strategies allowing us to integrate hundreds of plant systems procured in-kind by the seven ITER members. | ||

| TUPPC057 | New Development of EPICS-based Data Acquisition System for Electron Cyclotron Emission Diagnostics in KSTAR Tokamak | 699 |
|

| Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) will be operated in the 6nd campaign in 2013 after achievement of first plasma in 2008. Many diagnostic devices have been installed for measuring the various plasma properties in the KSTAR tokamak during the campaigns. From the first campaign, a data acquisition system of Electron Cyclotron Emission (ECE) Heterodyne Radiometer (HR) has been operated to measure the radial profile of electron temperature. The DAQ system at the beginning was developed with a VME-form factor digitizer in Linux OS platform. However, this configuration had some limitations that it could not acquire over 100,000 samples per second due to its unstable operation during the campaigns. In order to overcome these weak points, a new ECE HR DAQ system is under development with a cPCI-form factor in Linux OS platform and the main control application will be developed based on EPICS framework like other control systems installed in KSTAR. Besides solving the described problems main advantages of the new ECE HR DAQ system are capabilities of calculating plasma electron temperature during plasma shot and displaying it in run-time. | ||
