Poloidal rotation and the evolution of H-mode and VH-mode profiles

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10170077
The physics which determines poloidal rotation, and its role in the development of profiles during H- and VH-modes, is discussed. A simple phenomenological transport model, which incorporates the {rvec E} {times} {rvec B} flow shear suppression of turbulence, is shown to predict profile evolution similar to that observed experimentally during H-mode and VH-mode.
