The DRESDYN project at FZD

Gerbeth, G.; Eckert, S.; Gundrum, T.; Stefani, F.

The DREsden Sodium facility for DYNamo and thermohydraulic studies (DRESDYN) is intended to become a platform both for large scale experiments related to geo- and astrophysics as well as for safety and thermohydraulic studies related to liquid metal batteries and sodium fast reactors. The most ambitious parts of DRESDYN are a homogeneous dynamo driven solely by precession and a large Tayler-Couette like experiment for the combined investigation of the magnetorotational instability and the Tayler instability.
In the talk we give a short summary of the previous achievements, and we delineate the next steps for the realization of DRESDYN.
