The PF AC/DC Converter, the biggest ITER procurement package undertaken by China, passes the Final Design Review (FDR) during the Beijing FDR meeting this September. ASIPP PF converter team prepared more than 50 reports and did 3 internal rehearsals for this review.
The review panel consists of 14 experts, and among which there were 11 representatives from ITER organization and EU. During the meeting, ASIPP engineers made reports on PF converter system analysis, components design, manufacture, RAMI analysis, installation layout design, test procedure design, and test results .etc. The review panel listened carefully and discussed detailed design with the engineers.
At last, the review panel appreciated the final design phase work, and PF AC/DC converter final design was approved by experts group without category 1 CHITS (1st level among the three, need to be modified).
According to current plan, CN team will complete first set of PF AC/DC Converter manufacture and all kind of test, then deliver it to ITER site in next year.(WEI Min reports)
