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

Measurement and simulation of small cryogenic neon pellet Ne-I 640 nm photon efficiency during ablation in DIII-D plasma

Journal Article Hollmann, E. M. ; Naitlho, N. ; Yuan, S. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

Small (~1 mm) neon pellet fragments are fired into DIII-D H-mode plasmas, and resulting trajectory-averaged photon efficiencies (neutral neon ionization events for every photon emitted) of S/XB ≈ 85 are estimated for Ne-I 640 nm by dividing the estimated initial pellet fragment mass by the measured number of emitted Ne-I photons. The experiments are modeled by running the Lagrangian particle (LP) fluid/magneto-hydrodynamic pellet code to estimate axial ablation plume neon density profiles and temperature profiles at each pellet position. These solutions are then fed into the PrismSPECT collisional-radiative code, which calculates resulting neon charge states and photon emission rates, givingmore »« less

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

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
