Abstract
As an upgrading of TEXTOR-94, a Dynamic Ergodic Divertor (DED) is in prepar ation in order to study the mitigation of the heat flux problem. After an i ntroduction into the theory of ergodization, the design of the DED is prese nted. The Chirikov parameter describing the level of ergodization reaches a level of up to four if the perturbation current is applied in an optimized way. Finally the rich physics options of the DED are discussed.
