LabVIEW-Based Radiation Monitoring System of EAST

摘要

This paper focus on discussion and design of the LabVIEW-based radiation monitoring system of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST). This monitoring system based on LabVIEW software can get and monitor the environment's real-time nuclear radiation around EAST. EAST is a fully superconducting Tokamak, it has played an important role of nuclear fusion research and plasma physics experiments. During EAST's pulse discharge, there will be some radiation produced in the EAST's hall and environment, so radiation monitoring and control are necessary. Firstly this paper reviews EAST and radiation. Then this paper briefly presents the structure of the monitoring system. Thirdly, the design of the monitoring system based on LabVIEW is presented. The LabVIEW-based radiation monitoring system mainly includes: the definition of serial port, the definition of data request, the definition of data rewrite, the definition of data cutting, the definition of data saving and displaying. This monitoring system can work well.
