ENEA-IRIS Open Archive è l’archivio della produzione scientifica dell'ENEA, realizzato con l'obiettivo di raccogliere, catalogare e rendere facilmente accessibili in rete i risultati della ricerca. Gli autori dell’ENEA provvedono a depositare le proprie pubblicazioni (articoli su rivista, presentazioni a congressi, report, ecc.). In particolare, quelle finanziate dalla Commissione Europea nell’ambito del programma H2020 (che prevede il deposito obbligatorio in un Repository), una volta caricate, vengono automaticamente importate dal portale europeo OpenAIRE. È possibile inserire, o importare direttamente dalle banche dati previste, le informazioni descrittive del documento e anche allegare, ove consentito dalla normativa sul diritto d'autore, il testo completo della pubblicazione.

ENEA-IRIS Open Archive utilizza la piattaforma IRIS (Institutional Research Information System) sviluppata da CINECA.

In ENEA Frascati research centre an experimental fusion machine called Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) is in operation since 1990. During the experimental activity, the automatic control and synchronization of many plants are required. The FTU control system [1] includes many sub-systems having different roles [2, 3]. In particular, a Fast Sequence Control (FSC) hardware is necessary to drive the tokamak power plants and to detect the errors in the fast control sequence during the plasma discharge. The FSC system was designed and realized in 1980s and is still in operation. Due to the obsolescence of some hardware components, a new project for the FSC Upgrade (FSCU) has been started. The project includes a new architecture based on up-to-date commercial hardware and dedicated firmware and software. In the present paper the architecture and the functions of the Fast Sequence Control - Upgrade system is described, along with the main differences between the two systems. © 2015 IEEE.

Abstract

In ENEA Frascati research centre an experimental fusion machine called Frascati Tokamak Upgrade (FTU) is in operation since 1990. During the experimental activity, the automatic control and synchronization of many plants are required. The FTU control system [1] includes many sub-systems having different roles [2, 3]. In particular, a Fast Sequence Control (FSC) hardware is necessary to drive the tokamak power plants and to detect the errors in the fast control sequence during the plasma discharge. The FSC system was designed and realized in 1980s and is still in operation. Due to the obsolescence of some hardware components, a new project for the FSC Upgrade (FSCU) has been started. The project includes a new architecture based on up-to-date commercial hardware and dedicated firmware and software. In the present paper the architecture and the functions of the Fast Sequence Control - Upgrade system is described, along with the main differences between the two systems. © 2015 IEEE.
