Long Pulse High Performance Plasma Scenario Development for NSTX
The National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) [Ono, M., et al., Nucl. Fusion, 44, (2004), 452.] is targeting long pulse high performance, non-inductive sustained operations at low aspect ratio, and the demonstration of non-solenoidal startup and current rampup. The modeling of these plasmas provides a framework for experimental planning and identifies the tools to access these regimes. Simulat...
متن کاملPlasma modelling results and shape control improvements for NSTX
New shape control implementations and dynamics studies on the National Spherical Torus eXperiment (NSTX) (Ono et al 2000 Nucl. Fusion 40 557–61) are summarized. In particular, strike point position, X-point height and squareness control, and two new system-identification methods/control-tuning algorithms were put into operation. The PID controller for the strike point was tuned by analysing the...
متن کاملSimulations of diffusive lithium evaporation onto the NSTX vessel walls
A model for simulating the diffusive evaporation of lithium into a helium filled NSTX vacuum vessel is described and validated against an initial set of deposition experiments. The DEGAS 2 based model consists of a three-dimensional representation of the vacuum vessel, the elastic scattering process, and a kinetic description of the evaporated atoms. Additional assumptions are required to accou...
متن کاملEnsemble simulations for the RCP8.5-Scenario
The mean climatic development for Germany was investigated within the period 2031/60 in comparison to the situation in the observational period 1981/2010. The RCP8.5-Scenario of the IPCC was used because it reflects the actual CO2-emissions very well. On this basis the temperature trend for Germany was estimated using 21 GCM runs up to the year 2100. This temperature trend was the driving force...
متن کاملSolenoid-free Plasma Start-up in NSTX using Transient CHI
Experiments in NSTX have now demonstrated the coupling of toroidal plasmas produced by the technique of Coaxial Helicity Injection (CHI) to inductive sustainment and ramp-up of the toroidal plasma current. In these discharges, the central Ohmic transformer was used to apply an inductive loop voltage to discharges with a toroidal current of about 100 kA created by CHI. The coupled discharges hav...
