First demonstration of rapid shutdown using neon shattered pellet injection for thermal quench mitigation on DIII-D

Journal Article Commaux, N. ; Shiraki, D. ; Baylor, L. R. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Shattered pellet injection (SPI) is one of the prime candidates for the ITER disruption mitigation system because of its deeper penetration and larger particle flux than massive gas injection (MGI) using deuterium. Here, the ITER disruption mitigation system will likely use mostly high Z species such as neon because of more effective thermal mitigation and pumping constraints on the maximum amount of deuterium or helium that could be injected. An upgrade of the SPI on DIII-D enables ITER relevant injection characteristics in terms of quantities and gas species. This upgraded SPI system was used on DIII-D for the first timemore »« less

Observation of non-thermal electron formation during the thermal quench of shattered pellet injection shutdowns in DIII-D

Journal Article Hollmann, E. M. ; Shiraki, D. ; Baylor, L. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Formation of non-thermal (hot) electrons is studied during the thermal quench of shattered pellet injection (SPI) discharge shutdowns in the DIII-D tokamak. Both pure neon and mixed neon/deuterium shutdowns are studied. High-energy radiation (SXR and EUV) brightness levels show indications of non-thermal electron formation during the TQ. The non-thermal densities are of order 10¹⁸ m^–3 and non-thermal temperatures are estimated to be of order 10 keV. The non-thermal electrons appear to be mostly lost during the subsequent current quench, as no signal of relativistic runaway electrons is typically seen at the end of the current quench. In conclusion, the non-thermalsmore »« less

Thermal quench mitigation and current quench control by injection of mixed species shattered pellets in DIII-D

Journal Article Shiraki, D. ; Commaux, N. ; Baylor, L. R. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

Injection of large shattered pellets composed of variable quantities of the main ion species (deuterium) and high-Z impurities (neon) in the DIII-D tokamak demonstrates control of thermal quench (TQ) and current quench (CQ) properties in mitigated disruptions. As the pellet composition is varied, TQ radiation fractions increase continuously with the quantity of radiating impurity in the pellet, with a corresponding decrease in divertor heating. Post-TQ plasma resistivities increase as a result of the higher radiation fraction, allowing control of current decay timescales based on the pellet composition. Magnetic reconstructions during the CQ show that control of the current decay ratemore »« less

Injection of multiple shattered pellets for disruption mitigation in DIII-D

Journal Article Herfindal, J. L. ; Shiraki, D. ; Baylor, L. R. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Plasma shutdown experiments in DIII-D have injected multiple shattered pellets at different toroidal locations for the first time, as is planned for the ITER disruption mitigation system. Systematically varying the relative timing of the two pellets suggests that simultaneously injected pellets may influence the assimilation of each other, altering the resulting disruption characteristics compared to a single pellet injecting similar neon quantities. Thermal quench (TQ) radiation measured near the injection location is reduced with the dual pellets, contrary to TQ radiation measured away from the injection ports, which does not show a clear difference between single or dual pellet injections.more »« less

Estimate of pre-thermal quench non-thermal electron density profile during Ar pellet shutdowns of low-density target plasmas in DIII-D

Journal Article Hollmann, E. M. ; Austin, M. ; Bykov, I. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The radial density profile of pre-thermal quench (pre-TQ) early-time runaway electrons (REs) is estimated by combining electron cyclotron emission (ECE) and soft x-ray (SXR) data during rapid shutdown of low-density (n_e ≲ 10¹³ cm^-3) DIII-D target plasmas with cryogenic argon pellet injection. This technique is limited in these experiments to the pre-TQ phase and quickly loses validity during the TQ. Two different cases are studied: a high (10 keV) temperature target and a lower (4 keV) temperature target. The results indicate that early-time, low-energy (~10 keV) REs form ahead of the argon pellet as it enters the plasma, affecting themore »« less
