Reduced physics model of the tokamak Scrape-Off-Layer for pulse design

Journal Article Zhang, X. ; Poli, F. M. ; Emdee, E. D. ; ... - Nuclear Materials and Energy

The dynamic interplay between the core and the edge plasma has important consequences in the confinement and heating of fusion plasma. The transport of the Scrape-Off-Layer (SOL) plasma imposes boundary conditions on the core plasma, and neutral transport through the SOL influences the core plasma sourcing. In order to better study these effects in a self-consistent, time-dependent fashion with reasonable turn-around time, a reduced model is needed. In this paper we introduce the SOL Box Model, a reduced SOL model that calculates the plasma temperature and density in the SOL given the core-to-edge particle and power fluxes and recycling coefficients.more »« less
Homogenization theory for the effective permittivity of a turbulent tokamak plasma in the scrape-off layer

Dataset Bairaktaris, F. ; Hizanidis, K. ; Ram, A. K. ; ...

There has been a growing interest, over the past few years, on understanding the effect on radio frequency waves due to turbulence in the scrape-off layer of tokamak plasmas. While the far scrape-off layer density width is of the order of centimeters in contemporary tokamaks, in ITER, and in future fusion reactors, the corresponding width will be of the order of tens of centimeters. As such, this could impact the spectral properties of the waves and, consequently, the transport of wave energy and momentum to the core plasma. The turbulence in the scrape-off layer spans a broad range of spatialmore »« less
Fluctuation statistics in the scrape-off layer of Alcator C-Mod

Dataset Kube, R. ; Theodorsen, A. ; Garcia, O. E. ; ...

We study long time series of the ion saturation current and oating potential, sampled by Langmuir probes dwelled in the outboard mid-plane scrape-off layer and embedded in the lower divertor baffle of Alcator C-Mod. A series of ohmically heated L-mode plasma discharges is investigated with line-averaged plasma density ranging from ne/nG = 0.15 to 0.42, where nG is the Greenwald density. All ion saturation current time series that are sampled in the far scrape-off layer are characterized by large-amplitude burst events. Coefficients of skewness and excess kurtosis of the time series obey a quadratic relationship and their histograms coincide partiallymore »« less
Theory based scaling of edge turbulence and implications for the scrape-off layer width

Dataset Myra, J.R. ; Russell, D.A. ; Zweben, S.J.

Turbulence and plasma parameter data from the National Spherical Torus Experiment NSTX [M. Ono, S.M. Kaye, Y.-K.M. Peng, G. Barnes et al., Nucl. Fusion 40, 557 (2000)] is examined and interpreted based on various theoretical estimates. In particular, quantities of interest for assessing the role of turbulent transport on the midplane scrape-off layer heat flux width are assessed. Because most turbulence quantities exhibit large scatter and little scaling within a given operation mode, this paper focuses on length and time scales and dimensionless parameters between operational modes including Ohmic, low (L), and high (H) modes using a large NSTX edgemore »« less
