First results of this integrated modelling work on DTT (R0= 2.14 m, a= 0.65 m) are presented here along with outcome of the gyrokinetic simulations used to validate the reduced models in the DTT range of parameters. As a result of this work, the heating mix was defined, the size of device was increased to R0= 2.19 m and a= 0.70 m, the use of pellets for fuelling has been advised and reference profiles for diagnostic design, estimates of neutron yields and fast particle losses have become available. }, year = {2021}, journal = {Nuclear Fusion}, volume = {61}, pages = {116068}, publisher = {IOP Publishing}, doi = {10.1088/1741-4326/ac21b9}, language = {eng}, }
