Poloidal CX visible light plasma rotation diagnostics in TCV

Claudio Marini

Controlled thermonuclear fusion is the main goal of plasma physics. At the Swiss Plasma Center, the Tokamak `a Configuration Variable (TCV) constitutes the main experiment on fusion research, where high temperature plasmas are confined by means of magneti ...

The influence of the fine layers of the non-adiabatic passing electron response on electrostatic turbulent transport, previously studied systematically in flux tube geometry [Dominski et al., Phys. Plasmas 22, 062303 (2015)], is pursued in global geometry ...

Amer Inst Physics2017

Controlled nuclear fusion is the most promising candidate for being an inexhaustible, clean and intrinsically safe energy source. In the tokamak fusion reactor concept, a high temperature plasma is confined by magnetic fields. Turbulence diffuses the confi ...

Flux-tube and global grid-based gyrokinetic simulations of plasma microturbulence and comparisons with experimental TCV measurements

Gabriele Merlo

In magnetic fusion devices, the radial transport of heat and particle largely exceeds predictions based on collisional processes. This is widely understood as a consequence of small-scale turbulence which results from the nonlinear behaviour of so-called m ...

A new generation plasma turbulence fluid code for tokamak scrape-off layer dynamics

Minh Quang Tran, Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Sébastien Jolliet, Federico David Halpern, Fabio Riva, Annamaria Mosetto, Christoph Wersal, Félix Benedito Clément Musil

Understanding the turbulent dynamics of the tokamak scrape-off layer (SOL) is critical for the safe operation of future fusion reactors. In this region of the tokamak device, the plasma exhausts particles and heat onto plasma facing hardware components, wh ...

Experimental studies of the novel snowflake divertor concept (D. Ryutov, Phys. Plasmas 14 (2007) 064502) performed in the NSTX and TCV tokamaks are reviewed in this paper. The snowflake divertor enables power sharing between divertor strike points, as well ...

Using the local (flux-tube) version of the Eulerian code GENE (Jenko et al 2000 Phys. Plasmas 7 1904), gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence were carried out considering parameters relevant to electron-internal transport barriers (e-ITBs) in the TCV t ...

Gyrokinetic Simulations of Microturbulence in TCV Electron Internal Transport Barriers

Olivier Sauter, Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Xavier Lapillonne

Using the Eulerian code GENE [1], gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence were carried out under conditions relevant to electron-Internal Transport Barriers (eITB) in the TCV tokmak [2], generated under conditions of low or negative shear. For typical d ...

Local and Global Eulerian Gyrokinetic Simulations of Microturbulence in Realistic Geometry with Applications to the TCV Tokamak

Xavier Lapillonne

In magnetically confined fusion devices, the energy and particle transport is significantly larger than expected from purely collisional processes. This degraded confinement mostly results from small-scale turbulence and prevents from reaching self-sustain ...
