Review of Conventional Plasma Position Control and Development of BPN Based Adaptive Controllers for Aditya Tokamak
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Tokamaks are machines used for generating electrical power through nuclear fusion from plasma that is confined within the toroidal chamber. As Tokamaks require large amount of input power to produce plasma, the efficiency can be improved only when significant output power is generated. Hence in recent years, research has begun in this area to improve its efficiency. From the literature, it is found that the amount of power generated is dependent on the density of the plasma, plasma position and time duration for which the plasma is properly stabilized. In order to improve the efficiency, it is necessary to confine the plasma for longer durations within the chamber. This paper provides an extensive review of various researches conducted in this area to improve the efficiency of the Tokamak machines by stabilizing the plasma. From the literature cited, it is obvious that an adaptive plasma positioning system is yet to be evolved.
