North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Stochasticity of magnetic field lines near the separatrix in the Toroidal Divertor Tokakamak is investigated by the island overlappng model and the separatrix mapping method. Both results indicate that the undisturbed confinement core region can exists, and the width of stochastic region is found to be controllable by the x-point position and ploidal magnetic field. The width of stochastic layer obtained by the more relaible separatrix mapping method was larger than that determined by the island overlapping model.
