Title: TUBT004
Research Question: How does the NSTX control system, specifically the plasma control system, contribute to the operation and understanding of the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX)?
Methodology: The study examined the architecture and functionality of the NSTX control system, with a particular focus on the plasma control system. It analyzed the system's components, data acquisition methods, and real-time control capabilities.
Results: The research found that the plasma control system is a sophisticated, real-time digital control system that plays a crucial role in shaping, positioning, and density of the plasma in the NSTX. It acquires over 200 input signals and sends new control commands every millisecond. The system features a high-speed Front Panel Data Port (FPDP), a powerful computer, and real-time fiber optic data links.
Implications: The study suggests that the plasma control system is a key component in the operation and understanding of the NSTX. Its advanced technology and real-time capabilities allow for precise control of the plasma, which is essential for the device's operation and for gathering data about the fusion reactions occurring in the plasma.
