In this paper we present the design of four imaging bolometers viewing divertor and non divertor regions of Wendelstein7-X (W7-X). This design assumes a 640 × 480 pixel, 30 fps, 100 mK, IR camera imaging each IRVB foil. The bolometer cameras consist of a 9 cm × 7 cm × 2 μm thick Pt foils blackened with graphite, which are located distances ranging 6 cm to 8 cm from a 4.3 mm × 4.3 mm aperture. The 8 cm × 6 cm central section of the foil is divided into 24 × 18 IRVB channels each consisting of 504 IR camera pixels. Using a previously derived expression, the noise equivalent power of the IRVB is calculated as 109 μW/cm2. Assuming 5 MW of radiated power uniformly emanating from the 30 m3 plasma, the signal level is estimated as ranging from 4.5 to 8.1 mW/cm2 giving signal to noise ratios between 42 and 74.}, title = {Preliminary Design of Imaging Bolometer Fields of View for Wendelstein7-X}, volume = {11}, year = {2016} }
