1. Items Subject to BiddingItem Name: Basic Design of the Prototype Reactor Vacuum Vessel2. Overview and SpecificationsAs part of the prototype reactor design activities at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), basic design work is being advanced for the Vacuum Vessel (VV). The VV serves as the primary barrier ensuring the high vacuum required for plasma and containing tritium, a radioactive material. Key functions required of the VV include supporting electromagnetic forces generated by its own weight and the interaction between magnetic fields and eddy/halo curre…
