PWIE_FP9_PB2021_Brezinsek.pptx

Sebastijan Brezinsek presented the overview of WP PWIE activities

The Project Board members asked to clarify following points:

• UKAEA representative: high priority projects

=> reflected in grant deliverables / ADC high priority to get soon an answer

• CEA representative: what is the status of LIBS in JET

=> criticial - no funding avaialble though ITER high priority. SP X2 address LIBS conditions as expected in ITER or JET (~0,95bar) and typical layer conditions

• CEA representative: how is the link to FTD and other WPs established

=> joint meeting of PL FSD/FTD biweekly, joint meeting of all FSD PL biweekly, SPL in WP WPWIE and SCs in WP TE are linked where appropriate

• FZJ representative: how is the link of WP PWIE and TSVV and how can the PB PWIE impact on TSVV work

=> Thrusts as link to communicate / no direct impact of this PB /example MAGNUM experiments to study detachment feed into TSVV 5 as benchmark experiment

=> Volker Naulin: No overlapp as TSVV shall develop - no day to day modelling

• JSI representative: flexibility in the WP PWIE

=> WP PWIE for 2021 and 2022 almost fixed, other years resources indicativ. Changes according priority possible. Closure of TASKS e.g. KIT DIVGAS are foreseen
