High-performance double-null plasmas under radiating mantle scenarios on DIII-D

Journal Article Petrie, T. W. ; Grierson, B. ; Osborne, T. H. ; ... - Nuclear Materials and Energy

Actively enhancing plasma radiated power has been used to reduce divertor heat flux in high power, high-performance double null divertor (DND) and near-DND plasmas in DIII-D, while at the same time maintaining acceptable energy confinement. One form of this approach that we focus on here is the radiating mantle. The effectiveness of the radiating mantle was found to depend strongly on the location of electron cyclotron (EC) heating deposition and on the effect that seed impurities have on triggering inimical MHD activity inside the plasma. In addition, we present experimental support for the predictions made by the ELITE boundary stabilitymore »« less

Advances in the steady-state hybrid regime in DIII-D – a fully non-inductive, ELM-suppressed scenario for ITER

Journal Article Petty, Craig C. ; Nazikian, Raffi ; Park, Jin Myung ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Here, the hybrid regime with beta, collisionality, safety factor and plasma shape relevant to the ITER steady-state mission has been successfully integrated with ELM suppression by applying an odd parity n=3 resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP). Fully non-inductive hybrids in the DIII-D tokamak with high beta (< β> ≤ 2.8%) and high confinement (H_98y2 ≤ 1.4) in the ITER similar shape have achieved zero surface loop voltage for up to two current relaxation times using efficient central current drive from ECCD and NBCD. The n=3 RMP causes surprisingly little increase in thermal transport during ELM suppression. Poloidal magnetic flux pumping inmore »« less

M3D-C1 simulations of the plasma response to RMPs in NSTX-U single-null and snowflake divertor configurations

Journal Article Canal, G. P. ; Ferraro, N. M. ; Evans, T. E. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

Non-axisymmetric control coils and the so-called snow ake divertor con guration are two potential solutions proposed to solve two separate outstanding issues on the path towards self-sustained burning plasma operations, namely the transient energy bursts caused by edge localized modes and the steady state heat exhaust problem. In a reactor, these two proposed solutions would have to operate simultaneously and it is, therefore, important to investigate their compatibility and to identify possible con icts that could prevent them from operating simultaneously. In this work, single- and two- uid resistive magnetohydrodynamic calculations are used to investigate the e ect of externallymore »« less

Steady state scenario development with elevated minimum safety factor on DIII-D

Journal Article Holcomb, Christopher T. ; Ferron, John R. ; Luce, Timothy C. ; ... - Nuclear Fusion

On DIII-D [J.L. Luxon, 2005 Fusion Sci. Tech. 48 828], a high β scenario with minimum safety factor ( qmin ) near 1.4 has been optimized with new tools and shown to be a favorable candidate for long pulse or steady state operation in future devices. The new capability to redirect up to 5 MW of neutral beam injection (NBI) from on- to off-axis improves the ability to sustain elevated qmin with a less peaked pressure profile. These changes increase the ideal MHD n =1 mode βN limit thus providing a path forward for increasing the noninductive current drive fractionmore »« less
