A practical method is proposed for the fast shutdown of a large ignited tokamak. The method consists of injecting a rapid series of 30-45 (6 mm) deuterium pellets doped with a small (0.0005%) concentration of krypton impurity, and simultaneously ramping the plasma current and shaping fields down over a period of several seconds using the poloidal field system. Detailed modelling with the Tokamak Simulation Code using a newly developed pellet mass deposition model shows that this method should terminate the discharge in a controlled and stable way without producing significant numbers of runaway electrons. A partial prototyping of this technique was accomplished in TFTR.
