Neoclassical Transport in Enhanced Confinement Toroidal Plasmas
It has recently been reported that ion thermal transport levels in enhanced confinement tokamak plasmas have been observed to fall below the "irreducible minimum level" predicted by standard neoclassical theory. This apparent contradiction is resolved in the present analysis by relaxing the basic neoclassical assumption that the ions orbital excursions are much smaller than the local toroidal m...
متن کاملNeoclassical Transport in Quasi-Axially Symmetric Stellarators
We present a numerical and analytic assessment of the transport in two quasi-axially symmetric stellarators, including one variant of the MHH2 class[l] of such devices, and a configuration we refer t o as NHH2, closely related t o MHH2. Monte Carlo simulation results are compared with expectations from established stellarator neoclassical theory, and with some empirical stellarator scalings, us...
متن کاملTransport in ITER-like plasmas in neoclassical, fluid and gyrokinetic descriptions
Abstract. Turbulent and neoclassical transport in a reference hybrid-mode ITER plasmas is studied using a hierarchy of modeling tools. Transport from ITG/TEM instability is studied with nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations and compared with results from quasilinear fluid and gyro-Landau fluid models. Simulations include full kinetic ion and electron dynamics, although a pure-D mixture is assumed f...
متن کاملModels of helically symmetric binary systems
Results from helically symmetric scalar field models and first results from a convergent helically symmetric binary neutron star code are reported here; these are models stationary in the rotating frame of a source with constant angular velocity Ω. In the scalar field models and the neutron star code, helical symmetry leads to a system of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic character. The scalar field mo...
متن کاملOn the interplay between neoclassical tearing modes and nonlocal transport in toroidal plasmas
This Letter presents the first observation on the interplay between nonlocal transport and neoclassical tearing modes (NTMs) during transient nonlocal heat transport events in the HL-2A tokamak. The nonlocality is triggered by edge cooling and large-scale, inward propagating avalanches. These lead to a locally enhanced pressure gradient at the q = 3/2 (or 2/1) rational surface and hence the ons...
