Nonlocal effects in negative triangularity TCV plasmas

Olivier Sauter, Stefano Coda, Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Zhouji Huang, Gabriele Merlo, Claudio Marini

Global gradient driven gyrokinetic simulations performed with the Gyrokinetic Electromagnetic Numerical Experiment (GENE) code are used to investigate Tokamak a configuration variable (TCV) plasmas with negative triangularity. Considering limited L-mode pl ...

A Variable Structure Control Scheme Proposal for the Tokamak a Configuration Variable

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Ivo Furno, Duccio Testa

Fusion power is the most significant prospects in the long-term future of energy in the sense that it composes a potentially clean, cheap, and unlimited power source that would substitute the widespread traditional nonrenewable energies, reducing the geogr ...

Validation of the ICRF antenna coupling code RAPLICASOL against TOPICA and experiments

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Bruno Marchand, Holger Reimerdes

In this paper we validate the finite element code RAPLICASOL, which models radiofrequency wave propagation in edge plasmas near ICRF antennas, against calculations with the TOPICA code. We compare the output of both codes for the ASDEX Upgrade 2-strap ante ...

ELM-induced cold pulse propagation in ASDEX Upgrade

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Holger Reimerdes, Benoît Labit

In ASDEX Upgrade, the propagation of cold pulses induced by type-I edge localized modes (ELMs) is studied using electron cyclotron emission measurements, in a dataset of plasmas with moderate triangularity. It is found that the edge safety factor or the pl ...

Dependence of density fluctuations on shape and collisionality in positive- and negative-triangularity tokamak plasmas

Stefano Coda, Zhouji Huang

The effects of plasma shaping, in particular of the triangularity delta, on plasma turbulence, in terms of relative density fluctuations, have been studied in the TCV tokamak. It has been found that for inner wall limited L-mode plasmas, negative triangula ...

A locked mode indicator for disruption prediction on JET and ASDEX upgrade

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Ambrogio Fasoli, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Yves Martin, Jonathan Graves, Jean-Marc Moret, Patrick Blanchard, Holger Reimerdes

The aim of this paper is to present a signal processing algorithm that, applied to the raw Locked Mode signal, allows us to obtain a disruption indicator in principle exploitable on different tokamaks. A common definition of such an indicator for different ...

Sliding Surface Based Schemes for the Tokamak a Configuration Variable

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Timothy Goodman, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Stefano Alberti, Ivo Furno

Fusion power may be seen as the energy of the future in the sense that it composes a potentially clean, cheap and unlimited power source that would reduce the worldwide dependency on non-renewable energies. Nevertheless, while nowadays the fusion reaction ...
