Fusion energy: Progress, partnerships, and the path to deployment
Over the past decade, fusion energy has moved decisively from scientific aspiration toward a credible pathway to a new energy technology. Thanks to long-term federal support, we have significantly advanced our fundamental understanding of plasma physics—the behavior of the superheated gases at the heart of fusion devices. This knowledge will enable the creation and control of fusion fuel under conditions required for future power plants. Our progress is exemplified by breakthroughs at the National Ignition Facility and the Joint European Torus.

PPPL is presently preparing TFTR for D-T operation beginning the summer of 1993. Included in this preparation is the design and installation of a Tritium Gas Delivery and Injection System which will supply tritium to the TFTR vacuum vessel. The Gas Delivery System will be required to deliver the tritium gas from the Tritium Vault which is located in the TFTR basement to various components located on the TFTR device located in the Test Cell. These components include three Tritium Gas Injection Assemblies (TGIA); twelve Tritium Neutral Beam Injectors (TNB); and the Tritium Pellet Injector (TPI). The Tritium Gas Delivery System which will be described in this paper will include a double walled supply manifold plus the TGIA's.
