Edge Localized Mode Control in TCV

Jonathan Rossel

The Tokamak concept, based on magnetic confinement of a hydrogen plasma, is one of today's most promising paths to energy production by nuclear fusion. The experimental scenarios leading to the largest fusion rate are based on a high confinement plasma reg ...

Extremely Shaped Plasmas to Improve the Tokamak Concept

Francesco Piras

Energy is essential for human existence and our future depends on plentiful and accessible sources of energy. The world population is fast growing and the average energy used per capita increases. One of the greatest challenges for human beings is that of ...

Pedestal Characteristics and MHD Stability of H-Mode Plasmas in TCV

Andreas Pitzschke

The tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) is unique in its ability to create a variety of plasma shapes and to heat the electron population in high density regimes using microwave power at the third harmonic of the electron cyclotron frequency. In the fra ...

Real-Time Control of Tokamak Plasmas: from Control of Physics to Physics-Based Control

Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici

Stable, high-performance operation of a tokamak requires several plasma control problems to be handled simultaneously. Moreover, the complex physics which governs the tokamak plasma evolution must be studied and understood to make correct choices in contro ...

Snowflake divertor experiments on TCV

Olivier Sauter, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jean-Marc Moret, Benoît Labit, Francesco Piras, János Márki, Andreas Pitzschke

An ELMy H-mode 'snowflake' (SF) divertor is established and studied for the first time in the TCV tokamak. The H-mode access and the edge localized mode (ELM) dynamics are compared with a conventional single-null diverted configuration. The SF configuratio ...

Overview of physics research on the TCV tokamak

Ambrogio Fasoli

The Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) tokamak is equipped with high-power (4.5 MW), real-time-controllable EC systems and flexible shaping, and plays an important role in fusion research by broadening the parameter range of reactor relevant regimes, b ...

A saddle coil system for TCV and RMP spectrum optimisation

Yves Martin, Jean-Marc Moret, Jonathan Rossel

A multi-purpose saddle coil system is proposed as part of a future upgrade of TCV (Tokamak à Configuration Variable). This system consists of 3 rows of 8 coils, each coil having independent power supplies, and provides simultaneously error field correction ...

Bootstrap current calculations with the SPBSC and the VENUS delta f codes for the Large Helical Device

Olivier Sauter, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, Trach-Minh Tran

Total bootstrap current calculations with the updated VENUS+δf code that incorporates energy convolution and the momentum correction technique have been performed for the reference tokamak JT-60U cases and for the experimental Large Helical Device (LH ...

Chapter 2: Plasma confinement and transport

Yves Martin, Jing Li

The understanding and predictive capability of transport physics and plasma confinement is reviewed from the perspective of achieving reactor-scale burning plasmas in the ITER tokamak, for both core and edge plasma regions. Very considerable progress has b ...
