Modal and Seismic Analysis of ITER Soft X-Ray Diagnostic Camera

Article Preview

Abstract:

International thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) soft x-ray (SXR) diagnostic camera is an indispensible component used to measure signal intensity of SXR, which can reflect the internal properties of plasma. In this paper, the preliminary structural design and working principle of SXR camera is demonstrated, to investigate its seismic performance, modal analysis has been performed to obtain natural frequencies, effective mass and mode of vibration in first ten modes by means of ANSYS software. Then according to two parallel seismic analysis methods used in ITER, the calculations have been performed and the corresponding results have been illustrated respectively, the stress intensity and displacement are all within the allowable margin, which indicates that the design is reasonable and feasible. It will also provide beneficial reference for subsequent work.
