Abstract
A flexible mathematical model has been developed in Part 1 to simulate the transient thermal response of a number of nuclear fusion componen ts, including cryogenic devices that operate inside the JET Tokamak. T he present work reports on the simulation of an accident scenario, as well as further studies of hypothetical off-normal scenarios concernin g an out-of-vessel cryopump (the LHCD cryopump). These studies resulte d in a complete safety protection system for the cryopump, which has b een implemented into the JET operating routines.
