Growth rates of the axisymmetric instability of elongated plasmas in TCV are measured, in open loop configuration, for a wide variety of plasma shapes with elongations and triangularities in the ranges 1.3 < kappa < 2.2 and -0.3 < delta < 0.6, respectively ...
A high-order, multivariable, modern plasma controller has been designed using H-infinity optimal control techniques and tested oil the Tokamak Configuration Variable (TCV) tokamak. An initial design for the control of the plasma current, position, and shap ...
The stability of the vertical position control system in TCV is analysed using two different plasma models, a deformable plasma model (DPM) and a rigid plasma model (RPM). The open loop growth rates and closed loop stability are computed, as functions of v ...
The general control of tokamak plasmas has evolved considerably over the past few years with an increase in the plasma pulse length, an increase in the control of additional heating and fueling, and an increase in the degree to which the shape of the plasm ...
Active feedback stabilization of the vertical instability is studied for highly elongated tokamak plasmas (2 less-than-or-equal-to kappa less-than-or-equal-to 3) and evaluated in particular for the TCV configuration. It is shown that the feedback can stron ...
