Simulation of microtearing turbulence in NSTX
Thermal energy confinement times in NSTX dimensionless parameter scans increase with decreasing collisionality. While ion thermal transport is neoclassical, the source of anomalous electron thermal transport in these discharges remains unclear, leading to considerable uncertainty when extrapolating to future ST devices at much lower collisionality. Linear gyrokinetic simulations find microteari...
متن کاملFolded edge of turbulence in a pipe.
The results of an experimental investigation into the threshold boundary between laminar and disordered pipe flow are presented. Complex features have been uncovered using a highly refined experimental approach where an intermediate periodic state forms an integral part of the transition sequence. In accord with the suggestions produced by a numerical investigation, the boundary is found to be ...
متن کاملGlobal Gyrokinetic Simulation of Electron Temperature Gradient Turbulence and Transport in NSTX Plasmas
Global, nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven turbulence were carried out with the GTS code using actual experimental parameters of NSTX discharges. Our simulations reveal remarkable new features with regard to nonlinear spectral dynamics in 2D perpendicular wavenumber space. Specifically, there exists direct, strong energy coupling between high-k ETG m...
متن کاملImpurity Transport in Plasma Edge Turbulence
where θ is the density of impurities, μθ the collisional diffusivity, and ζ = mθ qθ e mi ρs Ln the influence of inertia, which enters via the polarization drift. The latter makes the flow compressible, consequently for ideal (massless) impurities, ζ = 0 and advection is due to the incompressible electric drift only. In all cases the impurity density is assumed to be so low compared to the bulk ...
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 ...
