The ''Tokamak à configuration variable'' (TCV, literally "variable configuration tokamak") is a research fusion reactor of the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne. Its particularity is that its torus section is three times higher than wide. This allows studying several shapes of plasmas, which is particularly relevant since the shape of the plasma has links to the performance of the reactor. The TCV was set up in November 1992. == Characteristics == * Plasma height: 1.40 metres * Minor radius: 0.25 metre * Major radius: 0.88 metre * Plasma current: 1.2 megaamperes * Plasma life span: 2 seconds maximum * Toroidal magnetic field: 1.43 teslas * Additional heating power: 4.5 megawatts 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tokamak à configuration variable」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
