Gyrokinetic �f particle simulation of trapped electron mode driven turbulence
The linear instabilities and nonlinear transport driven by collisionless trapped electron modes �CTEM� are systematically investigated using three-dimensional gyrokinetic �f particle-in-cell simulations. Scalings with local plasma parameters are presented. Simulation results are compared with previous simulations and theoretical predictions. The magnetic shear is found to be linearly stabilizin...
متن کاملGlobal gyrokinetic simulation of ion temperature gradient driven turbulence in plasmas with canonical Maxwellian distribution
A global gyrokinetic toroidal particle code for a 3D nonlinear simulation (GT3D) has been developed to study the ion temperature gradient driven-trapped electron mode (ITG-TEM) turbulence in reactor relevant tokamak parameters [1]. In GT3D, gyrokinetic ions and drift-kinetic (trapped) electrons are solved using a finite-element PIC method. The code uses a new δf method based on a canonical Maxw...
متن کاملGyrokinetic turbulence simulations with kinetic electrons*
Gyrokinetic turbulence simulations are presented with full drift-kinetic electron dynamics including both trapped and passing particle effects. This is made possible by using a generalization of the split-weight scheme �I. Manuilskiy and W. W. Lee, Phys. Plasmas 7, 1381 �2000�� that allows for a variable adiabatic part, as well as use of the parallel canonical momentum formulation. Linear simul...
متن کاملGlobal gyrokinetic particle simulations with kinetic electrons
A toroidal, nonlinear, electrostatic fluid-kinetic hybrid electron model is formulated for global gyrokinetic particle simulations of driftwave turbulence in fusion plasmas. Numerical properties are improved by an expansion of the electron response using a smallness parameter of the ratio of driftwave frequency to electron transit frequency. Linear simulations accurately recover the real freque...
متن کاملGyrokinetic Simulations of Tokamak Micro-Turbulence Including Kinetic Electron Effects
A gyrokinetic toroidal particle code for a 3-dimensional nonlinear turbulence simulation (GT3D) has been developed to study the ion temperature gradient driven – trapped electron mode (ITG-TEM) turbulence in tokamak plasmas. From linear zonal flow damping tests and nonlinear ITG simulations, it is shown that a new method based on a canonical Maxwellian distribution is essential to simulate corr...
