Non-inductive Plasma Current Start-up by EC and RF Power in the TST-2 Spherical Tokamak
Non-inductive plasma current start-up by EC and RF power was carried out on the TST-2 device. Low frequency RF (21 MHz) sustainment was demonstrated, and the obtained high βp spherical tokamak configuration has similar equilibrium values as the EC (2.45 GHz) sustained plasma. Equilibrium analysis revealed the detailed information on three discharge phases: (i) In the initial current formation p...
متن کاملPower in Plasma RF heating in a tokamak cavity 1
We consider the problem of computing the global response of a tokamak to RF-antenna driving, including conversion at the ion-hybrid resonance layer. The tokamak is modeled as a 2-D circular cavity (a poloidal cross-section). An antenna launches a family of magnetosonic (MS) rays. The amplitude and phase of the MS wave eld are transported using eikonal techniques: the phase is transported using ...
متن کاملPlasma Rotation and Transport in the MAST Spherical Tokamak
The formation of internal transport barriers (ITBs) is investigated in MAST spherical tokamak (ST) plasmas. The roles of E×B flow shear, q-profile (magnetic shear) and MHD activity in their formation and evolution are studied using data from high-resolution kineticand q-profile diagnostics. In L-mode plasmas, with co-current directed NBI heating, ITBs in the momentum and ion thermal channels fo...

اندیشمندان و صاحب نظران علوم اجتماعی بر این باورند که مرحله تازه ای در تاریخ جوامع بشری اغاز شده است. ویژگیهای این جامعه نو را می توان پدیده هایی از جمله اقتصاد اطلاعاتی جهانی ، هندسه متغیر شبکه ای، فرهنگ مجاز واقعی ، توسعه حیرت انگیز فناوری های دیجیتال، خدمات پیوسته و نیز فشردگی زمان و مکان برشمرد. از سوی دیگر قدرت به عنوان موضوع اصلی علم سیاست جایگاه مهمی در روابط انسانی دارد، قدرت و بازتولید...
15 صفحه اولIntegrated plasma physics modelling for the Culham steady state spherical tokamak fusion power plant
Integrated modelling of important plasma physics issues related to the design of a steady-state spherical tokamak (ST) fusion power plant is described. The key is a steady-state current drive, and 92% of this is provided by a combination of bootstrap and diamagnetic currents, both of which have a substantial toroidal component in a ST. The remaining current is to be provided by either neutral b...
