First results of the TJ-I U Torsatron

Journal Article Ascasibar, E; Alejaldre, C; Alonso, J - Fusion Technology

In April 1994 first ECRH plasmas (28 GHz, 2nd harmonic) have been produced in the TJ-I U torsatron (R=0.6m, [a]=0.1m, B(0)=0.52 T, E(0)=0.21). In November 1994 a second experimental campaign using a 37.5 GHz gyrotron (B(o)=0.69 T) has started. The main parameters of the device, the basic characteristics of the heating system and some results concerning magnetic surface mapping and first plasma discharges, are reported. 4 refs., 4 figs.
A versatile timing system based on OS9 for the Spanish stellarator TJ-II

Conference Pacios, L; Pena, A; Labrador, I; ...

In this paper the authors describe the Timing System for the TJ-II Stellarator, which is presently under construction in Madrid (Spain), and which is expected to start operation in 1996. The Timing System is an essential element of the TJ-II, that has been commissioned, designed, and built to provide synchronization for all the subsystems, diagnostics and auxiliary heating systems of TJ-II. Its structure is both centralized and distributed. The PSK (Phase Shift Keying) modulation technique is used to distribute simultaneously both timing and event information via fiber optic link. The system provides absolute timing references with a variable time resolutionmore »« less
{rho}{sub s} scaling of characteristic turbulent structures in the torsatron TJ-K

Journal Article Ramisch, M; Mahdizadeh, N; Stroth, U; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The scalings of correlation lengths and times with the drift-scale parameter {rho}{sub s} and other dimensionless parameters are investigated. Using a novel 8x8 Langmuir probe matrix, the two-dimensional structure of drift-wave turbulence has been measured inside the confinement region of the toroidal low-temperature plasma in the TJ-K torsatron [N. Krause et al., Rev. Sci. Instrum. 73, 3474 (2002)]. Using five different gases from hydrogen to argon, {rho}{sub s} could be varied by a factor of 10. For small ion masses, the scalings of the microscopic parameters turn out to be close to the predictions from drift-wave turbulence, which lead tomore »« less

A New Four-Barrel Pellet Injection System for the TJ-II Stellarator

Conference Combs, Stephen; Foust, Charles; McGill, James; ...

A new pellet injection system for the TJ-II stellarator has been developed/constructed as part of a collaboration between the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the Centro de Investigaciones Energ ticas, Medioambientales y Tecnol gicas (CIEMAT). ORNL is providing most of the injector hardware and instrumentation, the pellet diagnostics, and the pellet transport tubes; CIEMAT is responsible for the injector stand/interface to the stellarator, cryogenic refrigerator, vacuum pumps/ballast volumes, gas manifolds, remote operations, plasma diagnostics, and data acquisition. The pellet injector design is an upgraded version of that used for the ORNL injector installed on the Madison Symmetric Torus (MST).more »« less
Magnetic surface mapping with an emissive filament technique on the Auburn Torsatron: Technical report

Technical Report Gandy, R; Henderson, M; Hanson, J; ...

Torsatron and stellarator plasma confinement devices rely on magnetic surface mapping to determine the critical vacuum magnetic field structure. A recently developed method employing an emissive filament offers some advantages over the traditional technique of mapping with a directed electron beam. On the Auburn Torsatron a comparative study between the emissive filament and directed electron beam techniques has been conducted. The parameters varied in the comparative study are: filament geometry, emission current, bias voltage, background gas pressure, and magnetic field strength. This comparative study indicates that the emissive filament technique is reliable over a broad and easily accessible range ofmore »« less
