abstract = {WEST is a full W tokamak with an extensive set of
diagnostics for heat load measurements especially in the
lower divertor. It is composed by infrared thermography,
thermal measurement with thermocouples and fibre Bragg
grating embedded few mm below the surface and flush mounted
Langmuir probes. A large database including different
magnetic equilibrium and input power is investigated to
compare the heat load pattern (location, amplitude of the
peak and heat flux decay length) on the inner and outer
strike point regions: from the first ohmic diverted plasma
(obtained during the second experimental campaign C2 in
2018) up to the high power (8 MW total injected) and high
energy (up to 90 MJ injected energy in lower single null
configuration) experiments performed in the last
experimental campaign (C4 in 2019). Concerning the peak
location, a good agreement (<1 cm) is obtained between
thermal inversions and flush-mounted LP measurements. The
peak heat flux from the whole set of diagnostics is in good
agreement and mainly in the $±20\%$ range, while the heat
flux decay length reported on the target shows significant
discrepancy between diagnostics and location in the machine
$(±40\%$ range). Despite such discrepancy, heat flux decay
length at target is found to scale mainly with the magnetic
flux expansion through the variation of the X-point height,
as expected. The improved plasma performances achieved
during C4 enabled to reach significant heat load in the
divertor, up to 6 MW m−2 with 4 MW of additional heating
power showing the capability to reach the ITER relevant heat
load (10 MW m−2 steady state) with about 7 MW of
additional power in L-mode discharge. The heat load
distribution is clearly asymmetric with a 3/4 and 1/4
distribution on the outer and inner strike point region
respectively for the parallel heat flux.},
