  20. PLASMA FACING COMPONENTS OF SST-1

  21. Objective and Requirements of DAS SST-1 is a steady state device… The system must capable enough to acquire all required physics information.. Due to continuous nature of operation … no physics information should be lost.. And no unnecessary data should be acquired. Concept of event for data reduction, Scheduled and un scheduled events. If required … must offer lossless acquisition.. Provide support for real time visualization of data. On line processing for Physics Information. Remote operation, processing and viewing… GUI based local and synchronous operations. Tagged with events for post processing and viewing. Distributed DAS for batter data managements performance enhancement with growing tech

  22. How SST-1 DAS Differs Most of the Tokamak operates in pulse mode Discharge duration could be few seconds Captures data during discharge.    Retrieves it later on for analysis Display of data as a single trace. Do not demand any need of viewing data during discharge since discharge is limited for few seconds Generates manageable data during shot-10Mb or so

  23. However SST1 will be operated under steady State for 1000 Seconds Demands online viewing 1000 seconds 20 minutes, can’t wait till end of the pulse Online processing to infer physics parameter like Density, Plasma current Demands large local buffers for storage Generates large amount of data Demands transfer to host-as fast as possible for loss less acquisition Tagging of events and time Storage for post processing These all puts significant effect on acquisition instruments

  24. Above requirements poses many Technical problems Large amount of data Network load increases substantially Storage requirements grows enormously Processing needs also grows and demands faster CPUs Large buffers or Multi buffer schemes Deterministic nature of network and minimum latency Here the root cause is LARGE AMOUNT OF DATA

  25. How one can reduce the data? – EVENT DRIVEN SAMPLING   Acquire data at lower sampling rate during low activity period Change Sampling rate as and when important event occurs Revert-back to normal sampling rate after /\ t If everything is sequential and pre determined ---window based acquisition Event driven sampling

  26. How much reduction in data one can achieve in Event base triggering? ·  Depends on number of events, duration of events. ·        Sampling rate during event. ·        Base level Sampling rate. ·        Depends on diagnostic and its needs.

  27. What are the problems caused by event driven sampling Scheme?   Each diagnostic has to identify the events, its duration and required Sampling rate. ·        Each sub-system like NBI, LHCD, ICRH etc. Has to identify events. ·        Generation of events- Electronics hardware. Encoding of events- numbering of events. ·   Distribution of events to various sub-systems and digitizers, Its Time criticality . · ·        Selection of digitizer which can accepts such events triggering. ·        Time tagging of events while storing the data. ·        Event recording- Sampling rate, event etcs needs to be stored for post archival. This basically demands a very unique timing/triggering system.

  28. Employ various diagnostics to study the various parameters like Electron Density Bolo meters Soft X-Ray radiation Thomson scattering Charge-exchange Plasma Current Langmiur Probes Microwave Interferometer Loop Voltage Electron Temperature Spectroscopy

Generate 3.5 Mbytes/sec Total of 450 Channels at fast sampling rate @1Mhz, event based… Number of schedule and unscheduled events about 5 Total Data225 Mbyte on board timing/triggering system

  33. Timing System SST-1 is consists of various subsystems Subsystems are Physically wide apart. Time synchronization between the subsystem is required for proper and reliable operation of Experiment. Exchange of events between sub systems is essential for smooth operation. Deterministic distribution within 5 micro sec Common clock reference for tight simultaneity between subsystem and central control. Event based sampling to limit data volume and not to lose the physics information.

  37. What is the solution Considering the data rate generation as per the requirements For Slow Diagnostics Demanding Continuous Loss less acquisition. Volume of data generation is less per sec FIFO/Dual Ported RAM buffer Fast back plane Data streaming to disk For Fast Diagnostics demanding higher sampling rate Data must be stored on Onboard Memory Multi Buffer or Segmented memory for different events

  38. Opted for Fast Diagnostics: CAMAC based stand alone system has been chosen. For this a ISA bus based 16 Bit Crate Controller and a special digitizer supporting multiple segments of memory for Events has be developed in house. PXI for Slow Diagnostics: The PXI based system has been chosen. The major reason of choosing PXI is that it is based on the industry standard PCI bus. For making it perfect for instrumentations, the additional trigger lines, local bus and a clock signal has been incorporate. In addition the chassis complies with EMC/EMI standard. All the PXI module comes bundled with Plug and Play driver for windows platform. The bus offers a transfer rate of 132Mbytes @33MHz & Fiber optic link to host.
