Model validation and integrated modelling simulations for the JT-60SA tokamak
نویسندگان
چکیده
A coordinated Japan-EU modelling activity has started in order to provide predictive simulations of the main JT-60SA scenarios. The first results of this activity are discussed in this paper. This includes: i) the critical comparison and benchmark of Japanese and EU H&CD codes, in particular of NBI codes for the complex injector configuration of the JT-60SA machine; ii) the validation of the main models and simulation framework used in both Japanese and EU integrated modelling suites of codes, based on selected reference discharges of JT-60U and JET, representing the main scenarios (H-mode, hybrid, advanced); iii) predictive modelling of JT-60SA scenario, using the 0.5-D code METIS.

The CAD models will be exchanged and integrated at Naka for JT-60SA, a common computer network efficiently connected between Naka site and the Garching site is needed to be established. Virtual Private Network (VPN) was introduced with LAN on computer network physically-separated from JAEA intranet area and firewall. In July 2009, a new VPN connection between the Naka and Garching sites has bee...
متن کاملA Plan for a Fast-Ion D-Alpha (FIDA) Measurement for JT-60SA∗)
A new fast-ion diagnostic based on the spectroscopy of the Doppler shifted Balmer-alpha line of Deuterium is considered for JT-60SA. Two sight lines, one tangential and the other perpendicular, are examined as candidates. It was found that the tangential one has better sensitivity than the perpendicular one. A trial of the FIDA measurement was performed on JT-60U. Signals due to the tangential-...
متن کاملDevelopment of Negative Ion Based Neutral Beam Injector toward JT-60SA
This paper reports recent R&D results on negative ion-based NBI for JT-60SA where 10 MW neutral beam is designed to inject for 100 seconds. There are major two issues such as improvement of voltage holding capability and reduction of the grid power loading of the JT-60U negative ion source with three acceleration stages. To improve the voltage holding capability, the breakdown location with the...

The paper reports the progress of R&D toward the JT-60SA at Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) during 2006-2008. Significant progress has been made in the long pulse operation of the negative-ion-based NBI (N-NBI) where a 10 MW D beam is required to be injected for 100s in JT-60SA. The injection pulse length has been successfully extended from 20s in the last campaign to 30s of the heating time ...
