PFC / JA - 93 - 12 Fast Wave Flow Drive in a Two - Component Plasma with Low Minority Concentration
Fast wave flow drive in a two-component plasma with low minority ion concentration is investigated. It is found that strongly sheared poloidal flow can be generated in a small region near the hybrid ion-ion resonance due to the rapid spatial variation of plasma response. The flow drive depends strongly on local plasma parameters such as the plasma temperature and density and is shown to be very...
متن کاملSignature of turbulent zonal flows observed in the DIII-D tokamak.
The spectrum of turbulent density fluctuations at long poloidal wavelengths in the edge plasma of the DIII-D tokamak peaks at nonzero radial wave number. The associated electric-potential fluctuations cause sheared E x B flows primarily in the poloidal direction. These zonal flows have been predicted by theory and are believed to regulate the overall level of turbulence and anomalous transport....
متن کامل1 TH / P 4 - 17 Edge Turbulence , Blob Generation , and Interaction with Sheared Flows *
A program of 2D simulations of edge turbulence and blob generation using the Lodestar SOLT code is described. Issues studied include the transport of particles and poloidal momentum in the edge and SOL, the processes by which momentum transport drives sheared poloidal flow layers in the edge plasma, the nonlinear turbulence saturation mechanisms producing the blobs, and the interaction of blob ...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Zonal Flow, Geodesic Acoustic Mode and Turbulence Regulation in Edge Plasmas of the HL-2A Tokamak
The coexistence of intensive low frequency zonal flows (LFZFs) and geodesic acoustic modes (GAMs) has been observed by identifying the spatial characteristics, i.e. the symmetries in poloidal and toroidal directions, and the finite radial wave number, using three-dimensional Langmuir probe arrays in the edge plasmas of HL-2A tokamak. The analysis of three wave coupling with ambient turbulence s...
متن کاملPlasma flows and fluctuations with magnetic islands in the edge of J-TEXT tokamak
The first comprehensive measurements of plasma flows and fluctuations nearby static magnetic islands driven by resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) are presented. These experiments were performed using multiple Langmuir probe arrays in the edge plasmas of the J-TEXT tokamak. The effects of controlled variations of the island size and location are explored. This study aims to understand the in...
