The newest era of workforce development at ANS
As most attendees of this year’s ANS Annual Conference left breakfast in the Grand Ballroom of the Chicago Downtown Marriott to sit in on presentations covering everything from career pathways in fusion to recently digitized archival nuclear films, 40 of them made their way to the hotel’s fifth floor to take part in the second offering of Nuclear 101, a newly designed certification course that seeks to give professionals who are in or adjacent to the industry an in-depth understanding of the essentials of nuclear energy and engineering from some of the field’s leading experts.

The DITE tokamak has a bundle divertor capable of operating in the maximum toroidal field of 2.7 T. A scanning infrared camera with a framing rate of 50 f.p.s. has been used to determine the power and power density at the divertor target. For discharges with 1.4 MW of neutral injection, peak diverted powers of nearly 400 kW were observed during the neutral injection period, representing 24% of the total input power. Power densities on the ion drift side of the target of up to 30 MW m−2 were measured for these discharges. Discharges without neutral injection show a maximum power diversion when the gas puffing is switched off.
