摘要

The requirements for neutral beam injection (NBI) on DEMO are assessed and the consequences for the design of the injectors discussed. Optimization of current drive requires NBI within a 2 m 脳 2 m envelope at large tangency radii. This is compatible with beamlines of 20 m length and moderate high voltage stand-off distances between injectors. However, q-profile control will necessitate at least three beamlines of different injector types and may not be compatible with shinethrough. Material irradiation studies show that, with three exceptions, there is no significant design issue for distances greater than 3 m from the tokamak wall.
