Neoclassical Plateau Regime Transport in a Tokamak Pedestal
In subsonic tokamak pedestals the radial scale of plasma profiles can be comparable to the ion poloidal Larmor radius, thereby making the radial electrostatic field so strong that the E × B drift has to be retained in the ion kinetic equation in the same order as the parallel streaming. The modifications of neoclassical plateau regime transport – such as the ion heat flux, and the poloidal ion ...
متن کاملThe kinetic chemical equilibrium regime
We investigate reactive gas mixtures in the kinetic chemical equilibrium regime. Our starting point is a generalized Boltzmann equation with a chemical source term valid for arbitrary reaction mechanisms and yielding a positive entropy production. We rst study the Enskog expansion in the kinetic chemical equilibrium regime. We derive a new set of macroscopic equations in the zerothand rst-order...
متن کاملESTIMATION OF RADIATION LOSS FROM STELLARATORS USING NEOCLASSICAL TRANSPORT THEORY
The radiation power loss from a magnetically confined plasma in a stellarator has been calculated using neoclassical particle and energy fluxes in an energy balance equation. We could obtain a power loss of about 34% of the total input power by numerical calculation. This fraction of the power loss has been found to be in good agreement with the experimentally measured values of 30-40% for...
متن کاملKinetic theory of point vortices: diffusion coefficient and systematic drift.
We develop a kinetic theory for point vortices in two-dimensional hydrodynamics. Using standard projection operator techniques, we derive a Fokker-Planck equation describing the relaxation of a "test" vortex in a bath of "field" vortices at statistical equilibrium. The relaxation is due to the combined effect of a diffusion and a drift. The drift is shown to be responsible for the organization ...
متن کاملBehavioral Growth Theory: A Neoclassical Approach
How do material norms and aspirations on which individual judgments of well-being are based affect the growth dynamics of an economy? Do economies that weigh very highly of these norms grow differently from those economies that values these norms differently? This paper attempts to answer these questions by building a growth model, where individual not only care for its consumption but also eva...
