摘要：

Plasma fuelling with pellet injection, pacing of edge localized modes (ELMs) by small frequent pellets and disruption mitigation with gas jets or injected solid material are some of the most important technological capabilities needed for successful operation of ITER. Tools are being developed at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory that can be employed on ITER to provide the necessary core pellet fuelling and the mitigation of ELMs and disruptions. Here we present progress on the development of the technology to provide reliable high throughput inner wall pellet fuelling, pellet ELM pacing with high frequency small pellets and disruption mitigation with gas jets and shattered pellets. Examples of how these tools can be employed on ITER are discussed.
