A neoclassical calculation of toroidal rotation profiles and comparison with DIII-D measurements
- Fusion Research Center, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia 30332 (United States)
Momentum and particle balance and neoclassical viscosity were applied to calculate the radial profile of toroidal rotation velocity in several DIII-D [J. Luxon, Nucl. Fusion 42, 614 (2002)] discharges in a variety of energy confinement regimes (low-mode, low-mode with internal transport barrier, high-mode, and high-mode with quiescentd double barrier). Calculated toroidal rotation velocities generally were found to (over) predict measured values to well within a factor of 2.
