Abstract

Disruption mitigation by shattered Ne pellet injection (SPI) has been simulated for an H-mode ITER D-T discharge of 280 MJ stored energy using the 3D TOKES code. Heating of the first wall from the radiation flash during the thermal quench of the disruption initiated by the injected pellets has been assessed. The dynamics of Ne plasma expansion in the core with radiation from this plasma have been simulated for the series of pellet sizes from 5.4 × 1024 to 8.6 × 1022 Ne atoms. The threshold pellet size for irradiation of the core energy has been found. The results of SPI and massive gas injection simulations are compared.
