Abstract
Toward the 1MV power supply system for the ITER neutral beam injector consisting of various components with oil insulation, gas insulation and vacuum insulation, design and manufacturing of dc ultra-high-voltage component have been progressed. Thermal design of long transmission line up to 100m was established. In order to design the high-temperature water channel for the plasma grid at 1MV potential, the resistivity of high-purity water at 180°C was measured for the first time. With the obtained resistivity, realistic high-temperature water circulating system was designed. A high-voltage bushing to transmit multiple voltages simultaneously has been also developed through a careful experimental study on vacuum insulation characteristics with multi-gaps coaxial electrodes. With the empirical scaling the electrostatic screen was designed taking into account effect of multi-gap and expected deformation such as thermal elongation during operation. After the assembly, stable voltage holding of 240kV at each stage was confirmed in the manufactured HV bushing.
