Blob dynamics in 3D BOUT simulations of tokamak edge turbulence.
Propagating filaments of enhanced plasma density, or blobs, observed in 3D numerical simulations of a diverted, neutral-fueled tokamak are studied. Fluctuations of vorticity, electrical potential phi, temperature Te, and current density J parallel associated with the blobs have a dipole structure perpendicular to the magnetic field and propagate radially with large E x B drift velocities (>1 km...
متن کاملGlobal gyrokinetic simulations of the H-mode tokamak edge pedestal
Global gyrokinetic simulations of DIII-D H-mode edge pedestal show two types of instabilities may exist approaching the onset of edge localized modes: an intermediate-n, high frequency mode which we identify as the “kinetic peeling ballooning mode (KPBM),” and a high-n, low frequency mode. Our previous study [W. Wan et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 185004 (2012)] has shown that when the safety fac...
متن کاملComment on "Intermittency in tokamak edge turbulence"
Comment on " Intermittency in Tokamak Edge Turbulence " Any statistical data analysis warrants extreme caution , in the absence of which one faces the risk of drawing conclusions which may not necessarily be correct. We find that the recent analysis work [Jha et al., on the reported first measurements of intermittency in the tokamak edge turbulence is open to question on a number of counts. We ...
متن کاملEvidence of Lévy stable process in tokamak edge turbulence
In an effort to understand the fundamental physics of turbulent transport of particles and heat in a tokamak, the floating potential fluctuations in the the scrape-off layer plasma of ohmically heated ADITYA tokamak are analysed for self-similarity using distribution function approach. It is observed that the distribution function of a sum of n data points converges to a Lévy distribution of sc...
متن کاملStochastic behaviour in the edge region of the SINP tokamak
Recently, there has been a great deal of importance associated with the effects of magnetic field ergodization in the dynamics of fusion grade plasmas. It is believed that ergodization of the edge magnetic fields can effectively mitigate ELMs and thus improve the confinement properties. The role of the edge electric fields has also generated a lot of interest. We have carried an experimental sc...
