Lithium pellet injection experiments on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak

Thesis/Dissertation Garnier, Darren Thomas

A pellet enhanced performance mode, showing significantly reduced core transport, is regularly obtained after the injection of deeply penetrating lithium pellets into Alcator C-Mod discharges. These transient modes, which typically persist about two energy confinement times, are characterized by a steep pressure gradient (ℓ_p ℓ a/5) in the inner third of the plasma, indicating the presence of an internal transport barrier. Inside this barrier, particle and energy diffusivities are greatly reduced, with ion thermal diffusivity dropping to near neoclassical values. Meanwhile, the global energy confinement time shows a 30% improvement over ITER89-P L-mode scaling. The addition of ICRF auxiliary heatingmore »« less

Impact of lithium wall conditioning and wave-frequency on high density lower hybrid current drive experiment on EAST

Dataset Baek, S. G. ; Li, M. H. ; Wallace, G. M. ; ...

A series of dedicated lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) experiments on EAST shows that lithium wall conditioning extends LH current drive and heating up to the line-averaged density of n ̅_e≈ 4x1019 m-3 for both 2.45 and 4.6 GHz. Current drive at such a high density is crucial for the development of long-pulse non-inductive scenarios on EAST. With lithiation, the LH power injection of 1.5 MW at 2.45 GHz resulted in a drop of loop voltage of ~ 0.3 V, which is a comparable loop voltage drop observed with 1.1 MW at 4.6 GHz. The observed decrease in loop voltagemore »« less

Resistive-Wall-Mode Active Rotation in the RFX-Mod Device

Journal Article Bolzonella, T ; Guo, S C ; Baruzzo, M ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The fundamental question of how the flow velocity of the background plasma can influence the motion of magnetohydrodynamics instabilities and, in the ultimate analysis, their stability is addressed. The growth of resistive-wall-mode instabilities in toroidal confinement devices well represents one example of such a problem. In this Letter, we illustrate a new strategy that allowed, for the first time in a reversed field pinch experiment, a fully controlled rotation of a nonresonant instability by means of a set of active coils and how the new findings compare with numerical modeling.

Wall conditioning experiments on TFTR using impurity pellet injection

Technical Report Strachan, J D ; Mansfield, D K ; Bell, M G

This work describes experiments intended to optimize the limiter conditioning for TFTR supershots. It is shown that deposition of thin layers of lithium on the limiters by impurity pellet injection changes the plasma-wall interaction and improves supershot performance. Series of up to ten Ohmic plasmas each with two lithium pellets were useful in preconditioning the limiter. Generally, plasma performance increased with the amount of lithium deposited up to the maximal amount which could be deposited. Experiments were performed with different materials being deposited (carbon, boron and lithium) and with different methods of deposition.
