Abstract
Steady-state operation of a fusion neutron source (FNS) requires plasma heating and current drive by means of additional power delivered by neutral beams. Six neutral beam injectors (NBI) will provide the DEMO-FNS machine with additional heating power up to 30 MW, with neutral particle energy of 500 keV. NBI systems developed for ITER can serve as the prototype for DEMO-FNS, as both systems have similar ion source current, with accelerated beam power in ITER NBI (1MeV) being twice as large as in DEMOFNS. The paper describes the NBI system with account of its integration into DEMO-FNS tokamak complex.
