Abstract
A three-wave based laser polarimeter/interferometer and a CO2 laser dispersion interferometer are used to determine the electron and current density profiles on a Chinese fusion engineering test reactor (CFETR). Radiation shielding is designed for the combination of polarimeter/interferometer and CO2 dispersion interferometer. Furthermore, neutronics models of the two systems are developed based on the engineering-integrated design of CFETR polarimeter/interferometer and CO2 dispersion interferometer and the major material components of CFETR. The polarimeter/interferometer and CO2 dispersion interferometer's neutron and photon transport simulations were performed using the Monte Carlo neutral transport code to determine the energy deposition and neutron energy spectrum of the optical mirrors. The energy depositions of the first mirrors on the polarimeter/interferometer are reduced by three orders with the whole shielding. Since the mirrors of CO2 dispersion interferometer are very close to the diagnostic first wall, shielding space is limited and the CO2 dispersion interferometer energy deposition is higher than that of the polarimeter/interferometer. The dose rate after shutdown 106 s in the back-drawer structure has been estimated to be 83 μSv h-1 when the radiation shield is filled in the diagnostic shielding modules, which is below the design threshold of 100 μSv h-1. Radiation shielding design plays a key role in successfully applying polarimeter/interferometer and CO2 dispersive interferometer in CFETR.
