Abstract
The proposed scaling of the sawtooth repetition time for ohmic discharges was obtained by reduced magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equation simulations together with a simple profile consistent transport model. The choice of a profile consistent perpendicular thermal diffusion coefficient allowed the obtaining of the scaling of the sawtooth repetition time in terms of the diffusion coefficients and edge safety factor (q/sub a/), thus generalizing the scaling given by Vlad and Bondeson (Nucl. Fusion 29, 1139 (1989)). The scaling was in excellent agreement with the ohmic results of the Frascati Tokamak (FT).
