The National Fusion Laboratory is part of CIEMAT.

The laboratory is dedicated to the development of fusion by magnetic confinement as a future energy generation option. Research is mainly centered on the Flexible Heliac TJ-II, and on materials studies.

History

Projects and research

Computer resources

Due to the large computational needs of the Laboratory, it makes use of both internal and external resources through collaborations:

  • The CIEMAT computing centre, with the following computers:
    • JEN50 (Origin, currently being phased out)
    • Lince (PC cluster)
    • Fenix (PC cluster)
    • Euler (PC cluster, 1152 Xeon cores, 13.8 Tflops)
  • The Barcelona Supercomputing Centre
  • BIFI (at the University of Zaragoza)
  • EGEE (Enabling Grids for E-SciencE, a European computational grid)
  • Ibercivis (Spanish computational grid)

Collaborations

The Laboratory participates in many international projects, such as:
