Abstract
VTT Energy co-ordinates the national FFUSION research
programme and the Finnish activities in the European
fusion programme. Finnish fusion research was integrated
into the European programme by the contract of
association between Tekes and Euratom, which defines the
research areas of the Association Euratom-Tekes. Fusion
and plasma engineering research at VTT Energy is carried
out in close collaboration with Helsinki University of
Technology, JET (Joint European Torus) and other
associated laboratories, such as Aselex experiment in
Germany and Tore Supra in France. VTT Energy provides
plasma simulation studies and modelling related to
radio-frequency heating experiments. The work includes
development of powerful simulation codes. In addition,
VTT Energy also participates in the design of the ITER
radio-frequency antenna in collaboration with VTT
Manufacturing Technology and IVO Technology Centre.
