Where FARIS is going
The next version, 0.2, builds on the same study:
- ARC-fitted geometry. Separate inboard, outboard and vertical thickness for every layer, using the published ARC radial build. It adds 18 discrete TF coils, a double-null divertor, several ports, and cross-section and radial-build views. FARIS can then be compared with the published ARC magnet lifetime (at least 9 full-power years to 3 × 10²² n/m²; Sorbom et al. 2015).
- Peak magnet fluence. Variance reduction aimed at the magnet (FW-CADIS weight windows), so the local peak is reported alongside the regional averages.
- Activation and decay heat at every outage, through ACTINV, with material impurities bounded three ways (none, specification maximum, per ppm). The uncertainty of the neutron spectrum is reported separately.
Further out, and not yet scheduled: CAD geometry (through Paramak and DAGMC), shutdown dose, and Windows and macOS builds. The plan and its decisions are in the demo roadmap.
Measurable goals for every part of FARIS are in the requirements.
