1. The quasi-continuous exhaust regime in ASDEX Upgrade and JET

Author: M. Faitsch, M. Dunne, E. Lerche, P. Lomas, I. Balboa, P. Bilkova, P. Bohm, L. Gil, G.F. Harrer, A. Kappatou, D. Kos, B. Labit, L. Radovanovic, A. Redl, O. Sauter, S. Silburn, E.R. Solano, A. Tookey, E. Viezzer, E. Wolfrum, and U. Stroth

Abstract: The quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime is a type-I ELM-free high confinement regime obtained at high plasma shaping and high separatrix density. A comparison with various ELM-free regimes in the literature is presented together with potential physics models for accessing the QCE regime. The regime was recently successfully ported from ASDEX Upgrade to JET. We present a first comparison between the achieved plasma conditions in the two tokamaks and an extrapolation towards ITER and EU-DEMO parameters. The step in size from ASDEX Upgrade to JET successfully lowered the pedestal top collisionality, demonstrating that the regime is not limited to high collisionality at the pedestal top but naturally operates at high density. The extrapolation to ITER and EU-DEMO parameters shows that they can reach the conditions in which ASDEX Upgrade and JET are operating in QCE without type-I ELMs applying previously proposed physics models.

2. The quasi-continuous exhaust regime in JET

Abstract: The quasi-continuous exhaust (QCE) regime is a regime that is naturally type-I ELM-free. It combines the high density at the plasma edge needed for power exhaust with the high normalised energy confinement typical for H-mode operation. In the QCE regime large-scale ELMs are avoided and high-frequency, low-amplitude filaments are present leading to the name-giving quasi-continuous edge transport of particles and energy. This contribution reports that for the first time the QCE regime was successfully achieved in JET with a metal wall. Moreover, it was demonstrated in the recent JET deuterium-tritium campaign DTE3 that the regime is compatible with D–T operation. Porting the QCE regime to JET strongly benefited from the experimental and modelling efforts at the medium sized tokamaks ASDEX Upgrade and TCV. Using the physics picture developed from the ASDEX Upgrade experimental results, the route to the QCE regime in JET reported here is following closely the approach that was successful in ASDEX Upgrade. First, strong plasma shaping—large elongation and triangularity and the highly correlated closeness to double null—is developed. Second, sufficient fuelling to achieve high enough density at the pedestal foot, close to the separatrix, is applied. In addition, neon seeding proved to be very beneficial to avoid type-I ELMs when reducing the main ion fuelling.

Abstract: Within the 9th European Framework programme, since 2021 EUROfusion is operating five tokamaks under the auspices of a single Task Force called ‘Tokamak Exploitation’. The goal is to benefit from the complementary capabilities of each machine in a coordinated way and help in developing a scientific output scalable to future largre machines. The programme of this Task Force ensures that ASDEX Upgrade, MAST-U, TCV, WEST and JET (since 2022) work together to achieve the objectives of Missions 1 and 2 of the EUROfusion Roadmap: i) demonstrate plasma scenarios that increase the success margin of ITER and satisfy the requirements of DEMO and, ii) demonstrate an integrated approach that can handle the large power leaving ITER and DEMO plasmas. The Tokamak Exploitation task force has therefore organized experiments on these two missions with the goal to strengthen the physics and operational basis for the ITER baseline scenario and for exploiting the recent plasma exhaust enhancements in all four devices (PEX: Plasma EXhaust) for exploring the solution for handling heat and particle exhaust in ITER and develop the conceptual solutions for DEMO. The ITER Baseline scenario has been developed in a similar way in ASDEX Upgrade, TCV and JET. Key risks for ITER such as disruptions and run-aways have been also investigated in TCV, ASDEX Upgrade and JET. Experiments have explored successfully different divertor configurations (standard, super-X, snowflakes) in MAST-U and TCV and studied tungsten melting in WEST and ASDEX Upgrade. The input from the smaller devices to JET has also been proven successful to set-up novel control schemes on disruption avoidance and detachment.

Abstract: In 2021 JET exploited its unique capabilities to operate with T and D–T fuel with an ITER-like Be/W wall (JET-ILW). This second major JET D–T campaign (DTE2), after DTE1 in 1997, represented the culmination of a series of JET enhancements—new fusion diagnostics, new T injection capabilities, refurbishment of the T plant, increased auxiliary heating, in-vessel calibration of 14 MeV neutron yield monitors—as well as significant advances in plasma theory and modelling in the fusion community. DTE2 was complemented by a sequence of isotope physics campaigns encompassing operation in pure tritium at high T-NBI power. Carefully conducted for safe operation with tritium, the new T and D–T experiments used 1 kg of T (vs 100 g in DTE1), yielding the most fusion reactor relevant D–T plasmas to date and expanding our understanding of isotopes and D–T mixture physics. Furthermore, since the JET T and DTE2 campaigns occurred almost 25 years after the last major D–T tokamak experiment, it was also a strategic goal of the European fusion programme to refresh operational experience of a nuclear tokamak to prepare staff for ITER operation. The key physics results of the JET T and DTE2 experiments, carried out within the EUROfusion JET1 work package, are reported in this paper. Progress in the technological exploitation of JET D–T operations, development and validation of nuclear codes, neutronic tools and techniques for ITER operations carried out by EUROfusion (started within the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme and continuing under the Horizon Europe FP) are reported in (Litaudon et al Nucl. Fusion accepted), while JET experience on T and D–T operations is presented in (King et al Nucl. Fusion submitted).

5. Exploring the physics of a high-performance H-mode scenario with small ELMs at low collisionality in JET with Be/W wall

Abstract: A new H-mode regime at low density and low edge safety factor ( q _95 = 3.2, with $I_\mathrm{p}$ = 3 MA) that combines high energy confinement, stationary conditions for density and radiation and small Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) have been found in JET with Be/W wall. Such a regime is achieved by operating without external gas puffing, leading to a decrease in the edge density and a substantial increase in rotation and ion temperature in both the pedestal and the core region. Transport modelling shows a reduction of the turbulence, which starts in the pedestal region and extends into the plasma core, and outward impurity convection, consistent with the improved energy confinement and the lack of W accumulation observed in those conditions. In addition, large type I ELMs, typically found in gas-fuelled plasmas, are replaced by smaller and more frequent ELMs, whose appearance is correlated with a substantial reduction of the pedestal density and its gradient. Pedestals in this operating regime are stable to peeling–ballooning modes, consistent with the lack of large ELMs. This is in contrast to results in unfuelled JET-C plasmas that typically operated at higher pedestal densities and developed low frequency, large type I ELMs, thus pointing to the low density as one of the critical parameters for accessing this small ELMs regime in JET. This small ELMs regime exhibits the same low pedestal collisionality ( $\nu_{\mathrm{e},\mathrm{ped}}^*\sim0.1$ ) expected in ITER and operates at low q _95 , thus making it different from other small ELMs regimes that are typically obtained at higher q _95 and higher pedestal collisionality. These features make this newly developed H-mode regime in JET with Be/W wall a valuable tool for exploring the underlying transport, the different mechanisms of turbulence stabilization, as well as the physics associated with the appearance of small ELMs in high-temperature plasmas at ITER relevant pedestal collisionality.

Abstract: JET, the world’s largest operating tokamak with unique Be/W wall and tritium handling capability, completed a Deuterium-Tritium (D-T) campaign in 2021 (Maggi et al 29th Fusion Energy Conf. ) following a decade of preparatory experiments, dedicated enhancements, technical rehearsals and training (Horton et al 2016 Fusion Eng. Des. 109–111 925). Operation with tritium raises significant technical, safety and scientific challenges not encountered in standard protium or deuterium operation. This contribution describes the tritium operational requirements, pulses and technical preparations, new operating procedures, lessons learned and details on the achieved operational availability and performance. The preparation and execution of the recent JET tritium experiments benefitted from the previous experience in 1991 (Preliminary Tritium Experiment), 1997 (DTE1 campaign) and 2003 (Trace Tritium Campaigns) and consisted of the following five phases: technical rehearsals and scenario preparation, tritium commissioning, 100% tritium campaign, D-T campaign (DTE2), tritium clean-up. Following the clean-up JET resumed normal operation and is currently undertaking a further D-T campaign (DTE3).

Abstract: Divertor power load is a major challenge towards a burning plasma in a next-step tokamak. Here, the first results of a divertor power load characterisation in tritium plasmas in type-I ELMy H-mode, obtained in the JET deuterium-tritium campaign (DTE2) performed in 2021, are presented. It is demonstrated that both, transient loads due to type-I ELMs as well as the power fall-off length, do not exhibit an explicit ion mass dependence, with remarkably similar values in the tritium plasmas and in the deuterium references. This gives an improved credence to published scaling law predictions, solely based on deuterium plasma experiments. Moreover, the type-I ELM impact on the inner divertor target is studied in deuterium discharges. A slightly increased parallel energy fluence on the inner target with a factor of 1.08 compared to the outer target is observed. This is explained by the smaller major radius of the inner target.

Abstract: The recent deuterium–tritium campaign in JET-ILW (DTE2) has provided a unique opportunity to study the isotope dependence of the L-H power threshold in an ITER-like wall environment (Be wall and W divertor). Here we present results from dedicated L-H transition experiments at JET-ILW, documenting the power threshold in tritium and deuterium–tritium plasmas, comparing them with the matching deuterium and hydrogen datasets. From earlier experiments in JET-ILW it is known that as plasma isotopic composition changes from deuterium, through varying deuterium/hydrogen concentrations, to pure hydrogen, the value of the line averaged density at which the threshold is minimum, ${\bar n_{{\text{e}},{\text{min}}}}$ , increases, leading us to expect that ${\bar n_{{\text{e}},{\text{min}}}}$ (T) < ${\bar n_{{\text{e}},{\text{min}}}}$ (DT) < ${\bar n_{{\text{e}},{\text{min}}}}$ (D) < ${\bar n_{{\text{e}},{\text{min}}}}$ (H). The new power threshold data confirms these expectations in most cases, with the corresponding ordering of the minimum power thresholds. We present a comparison of this data to power threshold scalings, used for extrapolation to future devices such as ITER and DEMO.

Abstract: High speed visible imaging allows to visualize the 2-dimensional dynamics of fast phenomena in the boundary layer of fusion plasmas. Here we describe the two high speed visible cameras currently operating in the JET tokamak, enabling the simultaneous observation of a large fraction of the JET tokamak vacuum vessel with the appropriate configuration for many different plasma phenomena. As an example we discuss recent observations on the spatial and temporal dynamics of visible emission at the outer wall during Edge Localized Modes (ELMs) and the penetration of Shattered Injected Pellet (SPI) into the plasma.

10. An analytical expression for ion velocities at the wall including the sheath electric field and surface biasing for erosion modeling at JET ILW

Subjects: Nuclear engineering. Atomic power, TK9001-9401
Abstract: For simulation of plasma-facing component erosion in fusion experiments, an analytical expression for the ion velocity just before the surface impact including the local electric field and an optional surface biasing effect is suggested. Energy and angular impact distributions and the resulting effective sputtering yields were produced for several experimental scenarios at JET ILW mostly involving PFCs exposed to an oblique magnetic field. The analytic solution has been applied as an improvement to earlier ERO modelling of localized, Be outer limiter, RF-enhanced erosion, modulated by toggling of a remote, however magnetically connected ICRH antenna. The effective W sputtering yields due to D and Be ion impact in Type-I and Type-III ELMs and inter-ELM conditions were also estimated using the analytical approach and benchmarked by spectroscopy. The intra-ELM W sputtering flux increases almost 10 times in comparison to the inter-ELM flux.

Abstract: A global heat flux model based on a fractional derivative of plasma pressure is proposed for the heat transport in fusion plasmas. The degree of the fractional derivative of the heat flux, α, is defined through the power balance analysis of the steady state. The model was used to obtain the experimental values of α for a large database of the Joint European Torus (JET) carbon-wall as well as ITER like-wall plasmas. The fractional degrees of the electron heat flux are found to be α

Abstract: Imaging diagnostics in Joint European Torus have become essential in the study of plasma wall interactions and the protection of the plasma facing components. During deuterium operations, the location of these diagnostics was at close proximity to the vessel. However, for the 50–50 deuterium-tritium operation, the neutron yield impact onto the electronics of these imaging diagnostics would have caused them to fail completely at these locations. Shielding these systems from neutrons is achieved by relocating a selected number of these imaging systems to outside the Torus Hall (i.e. to the other side of the biological shield wall). The relocation encompasses the construction of two new lines of sight crossing through the biological shield wall and each of them using an optical relay which extends to separate ports in the machine. This article starts with a brief description of two new viewing systems. However, it focuses on the optical modelling and engineering design of one of them which is a multiple camera system producing a wide angle view (WAV) of the inside of the vessel. This WAV system has been used successfully during the recent D-T campaign. It operates in a broadband wavelength range extending from the visible to the middle infrared. It also incorporates a novel in-house horizontal kinematic mirror mount made from glass reinforced plastic as part of the optical relay. The operational stability of the WAV system has also been assessed and some post design improvements implemented.

Abstract: We present an overview of results from a series of L–H transition experiments undertaken at JET since the installation of the ITER-like-wall (JET-ILW), with beryllium wall tiles and a tungsten divertor. Tritium, helium and deuterium plasmas have been investigated. Initial results in tritium show ohmic L–H transitions at low density and the power threshold for the L–H transition (P LH) is lower in tritium plasmas than in deuterium ones at low densities, while we still lack contrasted data to provide a scaling at high densities. In helium plasmas there is a notable shift of the density at which the power threshold is minimum ( n ¯ e , min ) to higher values relative to deuterium and hydrogen references. Above n ¯ e , min (He) the L–H power threshold at high densities is similar for D and He plasmas. Transport modelling in slab geometry shows that in helium neoclassical transport competes with interchange-driven transport, unlike in hydrogen isotopes. Measurements of the radial electric field in deuterium plasmas show that E r shear is not a good indicator of proximity to the L–H transition. Transport analysis of ion heat flux in deuterium plasmas show a non-linearity as density is decreased below n ¯ e , min . Lastly, a regression of the JET-ILW deuterium data is compared to the 2008 ITPA scaling law.

Abstract: The Charge eXchange Recombination Spectroscopy diagnostic system on the ITER plasma core (CXRS core) will provide spatially resolved measurements of plasma parameters. The optical front-end is located in upper port 3 and the light of 460–665 nm is routed to spectrometers housed in the tritium building. This paper describes the layout of the optical system in the port plug, cell and interspace areas. The layout is a continuation of the developments described in [1] and takes into account changes in the design of the upper port plug, considerations for the system lifetime as well as internal and external tolerances on the optical chain. The layout was selected also with a number of additional criteria, including optical performance, radiation shielding, maintainability and robustness. A free-space optical chain was added pushing the optical fibres to the port cell. A line-of-sight finder imaging apertures and masks in the optical chain was added to enable determination of deviations within the optical chain and stabilise the image on the fibres. Where feasible, existing solutions for sub-systems such as the shutter were adapted to the layout.

Abstract: In the framework of the ITER Physics Department of the EUROfusion Consortium, JET mission is focused on preparing for the next step devices by developing high performance scenarios and testing reactor relevant techniques and technologies. In terms of scenario development, a complete scan in isotopic composition has already started and, according to the present schedule, should include full T operation and culminate in a 50/50 DT campaign by 2020. In DD, significant increases in input power and various adjustments in fueling have allowed reaching the IPBp8(y,2) scaling up to 3 MA. A complete set of diagnostic upgrades is being implemented to support operation and to guarantee adequate scientific exploitation of the experiments. With regard to the technology, the main enhancements and specific tests are focused on maximizing the returns from the unprecedented 14 MeV neutron field and the tritium fuel cycle.

Abstract: Two visible cameras with the same wide-angle view have been used to study the gross beryllium (Be) erosion in JET. An absolutely calibrated spectroscopy system employed in the past for the same object was used to quantitatively infer the camera photon fluxes and also to validate the results. To extract the effective sputtering yield, a simplified method is applied from the quotient of the measured radiances of the D α and the Be II line at 527 nm. The obtained results are in reasonably good agreement with those already published. The main benefit of using cameras is that the global view of the plasma–wall interaction surfaces of the whole vessel is monitored, and the different sources and their wetted areas can be identified and quantified. In addition, the measurement of the particle flux distributions can be used for the validation of three-dimensional erosion-transport codes.

Abstract: The analysis of the radiation damage of imaging systems is based on all different types-of aiialoiue/digital cameras with uncooled as well as actively cooled image sensors in the VIS/NIR/MWIR spectral ranges. The Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) code has been used to determine the neutron fluence at different camera locations in JET. An explicit link between the sensor damage and the neutron fluence has been observed. Sensors show an increased dark-current and increased numbers of hot-pixels. Uncooled cameras must be replaced once per year after exposure to a neutron fluence of similar to 1.9-3.2 x 10(12)neutrons/cm(2). Such levels of fluence will be reached after approximate to 14-22 ELMy H-mode pulses during the future D-T campaign. Furthermore, dynamical noise seen as a random pattern of bright pixels was observed in the presence of hard radiation (neutrons and gammas). Failure of the digital electronics inside the cameras as well as of industrial controllers is observed beyond a neutron fluence of about similar to 4 x 10(9) neutrons/cm(2). The impact of hard radiation on the different types of electronics and possible application of cameras during future D-T campaign is discussed. EURATOM 633053

Abstract: In recent years it has been well known that in JET, with the ITER-like wall, the performance of high-power H-mode plasmas depends strongly on the magnetic topology of the divertor. This is generally attributed to the effect of the magnetic field shaping on the neutral flux transport and pumping, which—in high density H-mode plasmas—determine the pedestal properties and the global confinement. In this work we have analysed the spatial distribution and the dynamic behaviour of the D α -emission for different magnetic configurations. Experimental observations indicate that for certain configurations, the surface temperature and the D α —emission anomalously increase on top of the inner divertor, which points to thermal outgassing there. This is also the region where most beryllium co-deposits accumulate and most deuterium becomes trapped. The overheating at this region far from the strike point (SP) is observed to happen in magnetic configurations with reduced distance between the divertor material surface and the separatrix (clearance). The neutral flux that appears at the upper inner divertor during a few milliseconds after the ELM-crash, is more than an order of magnitude larger than the gas puffing rate and dominates over all other regions. Finally, a preliminary study describes how this thermal fuel outgassing from the co-deposited layers could be used intentionally as a wall-conditioning in JET technique with plasmas that focus their particle and heat flux there. This could be used as a complementary wall isotope control technique and more specifically for tritium recovery from the upper inner divertor where most fuel-trapping beryllium co-deposits accumulate in JET ITER-like wall.

Abstract: Improved localization of emission and reduction of artefacts have been achieved in tomographic reconstructions of the tangentially viewing spectroscopic divertor cameras in JET by introducing the contribution of reflections from the metallic wall surfaces in the geometry definition of the tomography process. The reconstructions thus describe the plasma emission only without features arising from misinterpreted reflected light. Benchmarks with synthetic emission distributions showed accurate reproduction within 10% and 1–2% of the reference emission distributions and camera images, respectively, when the reflection correction was applied. Without the correction, the reconstructed emission was observed to concentrate from the divertor volume towards the wall surfaces together with bright emission artefacts appearing in front of the surfaces to reproduce the reflections seen in the camera images.

Abstract: At first a detailed fast shutter design was finalized for the ITER core charge exchange recombination spectroscopy (CXRS) diagnostic. The shutter has approximately 70 kg of mass and a length of 2.1 m. It operates in fractions of a second (0.7 s) protecting critical optical components against degradation and providing means of calibration for the optical system. The shutter structure is driven by a bidirectional frictionless helium actuator, with forces and axial strokes of 3.4 kN and 2 mm respectively. The shutter structure consists of: (a) two blades made of CuCrZr and stainless steel, calibration surfaces (currently Al 2 O 3 ) on the top and on the bottom a protective TZM (Mo–0.5Ti–0.08Zr) screens, (b) two arms interconnected that form one cooling circuit including the blades, (c) a bumper system to limit the arms movement, and (d) a support. A description of these components and their functions are given in this paper, followed by some issues, and their corresponding solutions or ongoing investigations, encountered during the design work. Detailed manufacturing drawings have been developed as the deliverable final product of this design stage, and are used in the prototyping phase which includes testing, numerical benchmarking, and validation of the shutter concept.

Abstract: Équipe 107 : Physique des plasmas chauds; International audience; In JET-ILW dedicated melt exposures were performed using a sequence of 3MA/2.9T H-Mode JET pulses with an input power of P-IN = 23 MW, a stored energy of similar to 6 MJ and regular type I ELMs at Delta W-ELM = 0.3 MJ and f(ELM) similar to 30 Hz. In order to assess the risk of starting ITER operations with a full W divertor, one of the task was to measure the consequences of W transients melting due to ELMs. JET is the only tokamak able to produce transients/ ELMs large enough (>300 kJ per ELM) to facilitate melting of tungsten. Such ELMs are comparable to mitigated ELMs expected in ITER. By moving the outer strike point (OSP) onto a dedicated leading edge the base temperature was raised within similar to 1 s to allow transient ELM-driven melting during the subsequent 0.5 s. Almost 1 mm (similar to 6 mm(3)) of W was moved by similar to 150 ELMs within 5 subsequent discharges. Significant material losses in terms of ejections into the plasma were not observed. There is indirect evidence that some small droplets (similar to 80 mu m) were ejected. The impact on the main plasma parameters is minor and no disruptions occurred. The W-melt gradually moved along the lamella edge towards the high field side, driven by j x B forces. The evaporation rate determined is 100 times less than expected from steady state melting and thus only consistent with transient melting during individual ELMs. IR data, spectroscopy, as well as melt modeling point to transient melting. Although the type of damage studied in these JET experiments is unlikely to be experienced in ITER, the results do strongly support the design strategy to avoid exposed edges in the ITER divertor. The JET experiments required a surface at normal incidence and considerable pre-heating to produce tungsten melting. They provide unique experimental evidence for the absence of significant melt splashing at events resembling mitigated ELMs on ITER and establish a unique experimental benchmark for the simulations being used to study transient shallow melting on ITER W divertor PFUs

Abstract: openaire: EC/H2020/633053/EU//EUROfusion In JET with ITER-like wall (JET-ILW), the first wall was changed to metallic materials (tungsten and beryllium) [1] which require a reliable protection system to avoid damage of the plasma-facing components (PFCs) due to beryllium melting or cracking of tungsten owing to thermal fatigue. To address this issue, a protection system with real time control, based on imaging diagnostics, has been implemented on JET-ILW in 2011. This paper describes the design, implementation, and operation of the near infrared imaging diagnostic system of the JET-ILW plasma experiment and its integration into the existing JET-ILW protection architecture. The imaging system comprises eleven analogue CCD cameras which demonstrate a high robustness against changes of system parameters like the emissivity. The system covers about two thirds of the main chamber wall and almost half of the divertor. A real-time imaging processing unit is used to convert the raw data into surface temperatures taking into account the different emissivity for the various materials and correcting for artefacts resulting e.g. from neutron impact. Regions of interest (ROI) on the selected PFCs are analysed in real time and the maximum temperature measured for each ROI is sent to other real time systems to trigger an appropriate response of the plasma control system, depending on the location of a hot spot. A hot spot validation algorithm was successfully integrated into the real-time system and is now used to avoid false alarms caused by neutrons and dust. The design choices made for the video imaging system, the implications for the hardware components and the calibration procedure are discussed. It will be demonstrated that the video imaging protection system can work properly under harsh electromagnetic conditions as well as under neutron and gamma radiation. Examples will be shown of instances of hot spot detection that abort the plasma discharge. The limits of the protection system and the associated constraints on plasma operation are also presented. The real-time protection system has been operating routinely since 2011. During this period, less than 0.5% of the terminated discharges were aborted by a malfunction of the system. About 2%-3% of the discharges were terminated due to the detection of actual hot spots.

Abstract: openaire: EC/H2020/633053/EU//EUROfusion Considering reflections from metallic wall surfaces in generation of tomographic reconstructions of the tangentially viewing, visible-range spectroscopic divertor cameras in JET has been observed to yield enhanced spatial accuracy and significant reduction of emission artifacts in experimentally resolved 2D line emission distributions. Neglection of reflections in the tomography process was found to lead to overestimation of the emission near the wall surfaces by up to a factor of 4, as well as to formation of bright emission artifacts between the main emission regions and the wall surfaces, comprising locally up to 50% of the emission. Mimicking divertor spectroscopy measurements by integrating the tomographic reconstructions along vertical lines-of-sight implies that reflections comprise 15%-25% of the observed line-integrated emission peaks. The spatial differences in the reflection contribution between the different lines-of-sight are less pronounced than in the 2D reconstructions due to the dominance of the brightest emission regions through which the spectroscopic lines-of-sight pass. However, postprocessing EDGE2D-EIRENE simulations using the CHERAB code and synthetic spectroscopy suggests a decrease of the spectroscopically inferred divertor electron temperature by up to 75%, when redistribution of the observed light due to reflections is considered.

Abstract: The design of the tile assemblies of the bulk tungsten divertor row in JET was improved in the course of several experiments as far as the power and energy performances are concerned: many prototypes were exposed to high heat fluxes in several electron and ion beam facilities during the development phase. These experiments were carried out in parallel with extensive modelling of the complete tungsten tile assembly in the so-called Global Thermal Model (GTM). The goal was to understand the heat flow from the plasma-facing surface through the supporting structure down to the base plate of the JET MkII divertor sufficiently to be able to later interpret operational data from the torus. Temperatures measured in the torus are in good agreement (−10/+15%) with the model. Some characteristic times show stronger deviations, with no incidence on the highest temperature at all times.

Abstract: A new powerful software framework JUVIL (JET Users Video Imaging Library) has been developed and successfully installed at JET for fast data visualization and advanced analysis of all types of imaging data. The JUVIL framework is based on modular object-oriented components implemented in Python to simplify work with JET scientific data. It provides standard interfaces to access video data and post-processing, which are highly configurable and can be easily extended and adapted for new data formats and imaging cameras. One of the GUI components is the video player, widely used during the last JET campaign. It displays the video data for NIR/IR/VIS cameras and automatically carries out the post-processing (image rotation, data format conversion, scaling of non-interlaced fields to full frames).

Abstract: The 2014–2016 JET results are reviewed in the light of their significance for optimising the ITER research plan for the active and non-active operation. More than 60 h of plasma operation with ITER first wall materials successfully took place since its installation in 2011. New multi-machine scaling of the type I-ELM divertor energy flux density to ITER is supported by first principle modelling. ITER relevant disruption experiments and first principle modelling are reported with a set of three disruption mitigation valves mimicking the ITER setup. Insights of the L–H power threshold in Deuterium and Hydrogen are given, stressing the importance of the magnetic configurations and the recent measurements of fine-scale structures in the edge radial electric. Dimensionless scans of the core and pedestal confinement provide new information to elucidate the importance of the first wall material on the fusion performance. H-mode plasmas at ITER triangularity (H = 1 at ßN ~ 1.8 and n/nGW ~ 0.6) have been sustained at 2 MA during 5 s. The ITER neutronics codes have been validated on high performance experiments. Prospects for the coming D–T campaign and 14 MeV neutron calibration strategy are reviewed. This work has been carried out within the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium and has received funding from the Euratom research and training programme 2014–2018 under grant agreement No 633053.

Abstract: The in situ absolute calibration of the JET real-time protection imaging system has been performed for the first time by means of radiometric light source placed inside the JET vessel and operated by remote handling. High accuracy of the calibration is confirmed by cross-validation of the near infrared (NIR) cameras against each other, with thermal IR cameras, and with the beryllium evaporator, which lead to successful protection of the JET first wall during the last campaign. The operation temperature ranges of NIR protection cameras for the materials used on JET are Be 650-1600 °C, W coating 600-1320 °C, and W 650-1500 °C.

Abstract: Équipe 107 : Physique des plasmas chauds; International audience; In the recent melt experiments with the JET tungsten divertor, we observe that the heat flux impacting on a leading edge is 3-10 times lower than a geometrical projection would predict. The surface temperature, tungsten vaporisation rate and melt motion measured during these experiments is consistent with the simulations using the MEMOS code, only if one applies the heat flux reduction. This unexpected observation is the result of our efforts to demonstrate that the tungsten lamella was melted by ELM induced transient heat loads only. This paper describes in details the measurements and data analysis method that led us to this strong conclusion. The reason for the reduced heat flux are yet to be clearly established and we provide some ideas to explore. Explaining the physics of this heat flux reduction would allow to understand whether it can be extrapolated to ITER.

31. Impact of a narrow limiter SOL heat flux channel on the ITER first wall panel shaping

Abstract: he inboard limiters for ITER were initially designed on the assumption that the parallel heat flux density in the scrape-off layer (SOL) could be approximated by a single exponential with decay length λq. This assumption was found not to be adequate in 2012, when infra-red (IR) thermography measurements on the inner column during JET limiter discharges clearly revealed the presence of a narrow heat flux channel adjacent to the last closed flux surface. This near-SOL decay occurs with λq ~ few mm, much shorter than the main SOL λq, and can raise the heat flux at the limiter apex a factor up to ~4 above the value expected from a single, broader exponential. The original logarithmically shaped ITER inner wall first wall panels (FWPs) would be unsuited to handling the power loads produced by such a narrow feature. A multi-machine study involving the C-Mod, COMPASS, DIII-D and TCV tokamaks, employing inner wall IR measurements and/or inner wall reciprocating probes, was initiated to investigate the narrow limiter SOL heat flux channel. This paper describes the new results which have provided an experimental database for the narrow feature and presents an ITER inner wall FWP toroidal shape optimized for a double-exponential profile with λq = 4 (narrow feature) and 50 mm (main-SOL), the latter also derived from a separate multi-machine database constituted recently within the International Tokamak Physics Activity. It is shown that the new shape allows the power handling capability of the original shape design to be completely recovered for a wide variety of limiter start-up equilibria in the presence of a narrow feature, even taking assembly tolerances into account. It is, moreover, further shown that the new shape has the interesting property of both mitigating the impact of the narrow feature and resulting in only a very modest increase in heat load, compared to the current design, if the narrow feature is not eventually found on ITER.

32. Scaling of the divertor power spreading (S-factor) in open and closed divertor operation in JET and ASDEX Upgrade

Abstract: An experimental database of the power spreading into the target private flux region (S-factor) from ASDEX Upgrade and JET outer target data has been gathered and analysed. The power spreading, combined with the Scrape-Off Layer heat flux decay length λ q , determines the power exhaust channel width at the divertor target. In terms of main plasma parameters, we find that the poloidal magnetic field plays a major role S ∼ B pol - 1 in both L-mode and H-mode plasmas, similarly to λ q . Combining JET and AUG data in H-mode with open divertor we obtain a strong and beneficial major radius dependency and no plasma density influence is found. For closed AUG divII configurations in L-mode, however, larger upstream n e clearly broadens S . Interestingly, the scaling of S with divertor parameters, reveals that only target T e is needed to account for its variation. SOLPS simulations with fixed perpendicular transport reproduce most of the observed phenomenology, suggesting that the observed larger S in closed versus open divertor configuration is simply due to different target T e generated by larger parallel gradients.

Abstract: Équipe 107 : Physique des plasmas chauds; International audience; The ITER-like wall (ILW) at JET provides a unique opportunity to study the combination of material (beryllium and tungsten) that will be used for the plasma facing components (PFCs) in ITER. Both the limiters (Be) and divertor (CFC W coated and bulk W) have been designed to maximize their power handling capability. During the last experimental campaign (October 2010-July 2011) this capability has been assessed and even challenged in the case of the Be wall. The Be limiters' power handling capability (19 MW m(-2) s(-1/2)), predicted with a simple model, has been proven to be robust by the experiments despite an unexpected power load pattern. This capability has been pushed to its limit leading to Be melt events, which revealed that the power load is toroidally asymmetric. The protection system of the ILW did not prevent melt events mainly because the protection strategy relies on the assumption that the power load is toroidally symmetric. The bulk W divertor target performed as predicted. Operations were constrained by: (i) an energy load limit (60 MJ m(-2)); (ii) the limited number of cycles of the surface temperature above 1200 degrees C in order to prevent thermal fatigue. This latter limit has been exceeded about 300 times and no signs of damage or thermal fatigue have been observed by the photogrammetric survey.

Abstract: Significant changes in the edge localized mode (ELM) crash heat load deposition patterns compared to typical ELMs are seen via infra-red observations during resonant magnetic perturbation experiments at the Joint European Torus (JET). These modifications result from the changed magnetic topology of the plasma, caused by the perturbations. Dependences on the perturbation strength and the edge safety factor are analysed and discussed. A thermoelectric current model shows that current filaments in the plasma edge could explain the observations. This study gives an insight into how the changed magnetic topology affects the peak heat fluxes of ELMs which is crucial for understanding ELM control.

Abstract: For the design and the operation of large fusion devices a detailed understanding of the power exhaust processes is necessary. This paper will give an overview of the current research on the divertor power load mechanisms. The results shown are obtained in JET with the ITER like wall and ASDEX Upgrade with tungsten coated plasma facing components. The challenges of infrared thermography on an ITER like bulk tungsten divertor are presented. For the steady state heat load, the power fall-off length q in JET-ILW is compared to an empirical scaling found in JET and ASDEX Upgrade with carbon plasma facing components. A first attempt to scale the divertor broadening S in ASDEX Upgrade with tungsten plasma facing components is shown. The ELM duration tELM in JET-C and JET-ILW is compared. For similar pedestal conditions (Te,ped and ne,ped), similar ELM durations are found in JET-C and JET-ILW. For higher ne,ped at the same pedestal pressure pe,ped, longer ELM durations are found in JET-ILW. The pedestal pressure pe,ped is found to be a good qualifier for the ELM energy fluency in both JET-C and JET-ILW. Improved diagnostic capabilities reveal ELM substructures on the divertor target occurring a few milliseconds before the ELM crash.

Author: S. Devaux, G. Arnoux, I. Balboa, A.L. Campergue, Ph. Jacquet, F. Marcotte, Y. Corre, J-L. Gardarein, B. Sieglin, and JET EFDA contributors
Abstract: Installation of the JET ITER-Like Wall (ILW)has brought on the need of a reliable protection system as too high a temperature of the plasma facing components (PFCs) can result in beryllium (Be) melting or thermal fatigue of tungsten (W). A proper temperature measurement relies on the knowledge of three different parameters of equal importance: the sensitivity of the camera sensor, the transmission factor of the optics used and the emissivity of the monitored PFCs. In this paper we first present the calibration process of a wide angle infrared (IR) camera, which has involved the capabilities of the remote handling for introducing a calibrated hot source into the JET vacuum vessel. Then, we describe how the PFCs equipped with embedded thermocouples have been used to assess the emissivity of both Be and W.

Wischmeier and JET EFDA contributors The former all-carbon wall on JET has been replaced with beryllium in the main torus and tungsten in the divertor to mimic the surface materials envisaged for ITER. Comparisons are presented between Type I H-mode characteristics in each design by examining respective scans over deuterium fuelling and impurity seeding, required to ameliorate exhaust loads both in JET at full capability and in ITER. Attention is focused upon a common high-triangularity, single-null divertor configuration at 2.5MA, q95 3.5 yielding the most robust all-C performance. Contrasting results between the alternative linings are found firstly in unseeded plasmas, for which purity is improved and intrinsic radiation reduced in the ITER-like wall (ILW) but normalised energy confinement is 30% lower than in all-C counterparts, owing to a commensurately lower (electron) pedestal temperature. Divertor recycling is also radically altered, with slower, inboard-outboard asymmetric transients at ELMs and spontaneous oscillations in between them. Secondly, nitrogen seeding elicits opposite responses in the ILW to all-C experience, tending to raise plasma density, reduce ELM frequency, and above all to recover (electron) pedestal pressure, hence global confinement, almost back to previous levels. A hitherto unrecognised role of light impurities in pedestal stability and dynamics is consequently suggested. Thirdly, while heat loads on the divertor outboard target between ELMs are successfully reduced in proportion to the radiative cooling and ELM recurrence effects of N in both wall environments, more surprisingly, average power ejected by ELMs and estimated scrape-off-layer pressure ratio during the approach to outboard detachment also both decline in the same proportion for the ILW. Finally, inter-ELM W sources in the ILW divertor tend to fall with N input, although core accumulation possibly due to net ELM erosion still leads to significantly less steady conditions than in all-C plasmas. This limitation of ILW H-modes so far will be readdressed in future campaigns to continue progress towards a fully-integrated scenario suitable for D-T experiments on JET and for "baseline" operation on ITER. The diverse changes in behaviour between all-C and ILW contexts demonstrate essentially the strong impact which boundary conditions and intrinsic impurities can have on tokamak-plasma states.

During the last experimental campaign (October 2010 to July 2011) this capability has been assessed and even challenged in the case of the beryllium wall. The Be limiters are composed of highly shaped, castellated tiles. They are optimised for a range of scrape-off layer (SOL) power decay length 5 < lq,design < 20mm. Its power handling capability (19MW/m2s1/2), predicted with a simple model, has been proven to be robust by the experiments despite unexpected power loads pattern. However, this capability has been pushed to its limit leading to Be melt events, which revealed that the power load is toroidally asymmetric. The toroidal asymmetry could be explained by a misalignment of the limiters by 1mm. The protection system of the ILW has now been partially commissioned and the main chamber protection was operational. It did not prevent melt events mainly because the protection. The bulk W divertor target performed as predicted. Operations were constrained by: 1) an energy load limit of 60MJ per stack ( 60MJ/m2), and 2) the limited number of cycles of the surface temperature above 1200oC in order to prevent thermal fatigue. This latter limit has been exceeded about 300 times and no signs of damage or thermal fatigue have been observed by the photogrammetric survey.

Abstract: L to H transition studies at JET have revealed an n = 0, m = 1 magnetic oscillation starting immediately at the L to H transition (called M-mode for brevity). While the magnetic oscillation is present a weak ELM-less H-mode regime is obtained, with a clear increase of density and a weak electron temperature pedestal. It is an intermediate state between L and H-mode. In ICRH heated plasmas or low density NBI plasmas the magnetic mode and the pedestal can remain steady (with small oscillations) for the duration of the heating phase, of order 10 s or more. The axisymmetric magnetic oscillation has period ~0.5–2 ms, and poloidal mode number m = 1: it looks like a pedestal localised up/down oscillation, although it is clearly a natural oscillation of the plasma, not driven by the position control system. Electron cyclotron emission, interferometry, reflectometry and fast Li beam measurements locate the mode in the pedestal region. D α , fast infrared camera and Langmuir probe measurements show that the mode modulates heat and particle fluxes to the target. The mode frequency appears to scale with the poloidal Alfvén velocity, and not with sound speed (i.e. it is not a geodesic acoustic mode). A heuristic model is proposed for the frequency scaling of the mode. We discuss the relationship between the M-mode and other related observations near the L–H transition.

Abstract: In this paper we discuss strategies for the development of fast photodetectors suitable for operation in the lambda > 850 nm near-infrared (NIR) spectral region in the ITER core LIDAR Thomson scattering (TS) system. Detection of this spectral range is necessary if a Nd:YAG laser operating at the fundamental wavelength (lambda = 1.06 mu m) will be used as the input laser source. Different types of NIR photodetectors are potentially suitable for use in ITER LIDAR TS: the transferred electron (TE) InGaAsP/InP hybrid photodiodes and microchannel plate photomultipliers (MCP PMTs), the In(x)Ga(1-x)As MCP image intensifiers and PMTs, and the detectors based on transmission Si photocathodes. But their characteristics of either sensitivity, active area or speed of response, do not match the ITER specifications and all devices require some developmental work. For each of these detector types we review the characteristics of devices presently available and suggest a realistic development strategy suitable to extend their performances to meet the ITER specifications. Finally the expected performance of the ITER LIDAR TS system for different detector choices are compared by calculating the expected signal-to-noise ratio of the measured plasma temperature and density.

Abstract: The light detection and ranging Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostic is advantageous since it only requires a single view port into the tokamak. This technique requires a short pulse laser at high energy, usually showing a limited repetition rate. Having multiple lasers will increase the repetition rate. This paper presents a scanning mirror as a laser beam combiner. Measurements of the position accuracy and jitter show that the pointing stability of the laser beam is within ±25 μrad for over tens of seconds. A control feedback loop is implemented to demonstrate the long term stability. Such a system could be applied for ITER and JET.

Abstract: The dependence of the H-mode edge transport barrier width on normalized ion gyroradius (rho* = rho/a) in discharges with type I ELMs was examined in experiments combining data for the JET and DIII-D tokamaks. The plasma configuration as well as the local normalized pressure (beta), collisionality (nu*), Mach number and the ratio of ion and electron temperature at the pedestal top were kept constant, while rho* was varied by a factor of four. The width of the steep gradient region of the electron temperature (T-e) and density (n(e)) pedestals normalized to machine size showed no or only a weak trend with rho*. A rho(1/2) or rho(1) dependence of the pedestal width, given by some theoretical predictions, is not supported by the current experiments. This is encouraging for the pedestal scaling towards ITER as it operates at lower rho* than existing devices. Some differences in pedestal structure and ELM behaviour were, however, found between the devices; in the DIII-D discharges, the n(e) and T-e pedestal were aligned at high rho* but the ne pedestal shifted outwards in radius relative to T-e as rho* decreases, while on JET the profiles remained aligned while rho* was scanned by a factor of two. The energy loss at an ELM normalized to the pedestal energy increased from 10% to 40% as rho* increased by a factor of two in the DIII-D discharges but no such variation was observed in the case of JET. The measured pedestal pressures and widths were found to be consistent with the predictions from modelling based on peeling-ballooning stability theory, and are used to make projections towards ITER

Abstract: Resonant magnetic perturbation experiments at JET with the ITER-like wall have shown the formation of radially propagating pre-ELM structures in the heat flux profile on the outer divertor. These appear a few milliseconds before the major divertor heat load, caused by type-I edge-localized modes (ELMs). The formation of the pre-ELM structures is accompanied by an increase in the Dα emission. For some pronounced examples, the propagation appears to end at the positions where an increased heat load is seen during the ELM crash a few milliseconds later. These observations are presented and discussed along with a comparison of a thermoelectric edge currents model.

Abstract: We explore the interplay of market structure and government trade policy in the context of a heterogenous goods duopoly model (allowing for goods to be substitutes or complements) wherein governments simultaneously and noncooperatively choose whether or not to provide subsidies for their firms and then firms noncooperatively choose output levels, either sequentially (i.e., in a Stackelberg leader-follower model) or simultaneously (i.e., in a Cournot-Nash model). We focus on competition in quantities but also provide results when firms compete in prices. In both the quantity and price models we further allow for endogenous market structure by considering the case wherein one of the firms, a potential leader, can choose to lead or not lead (play Cournot). We find that government trade policy and market structure can interact. First, the trade regime can alter traditional firm preferences over sequential versus simultaneous play. Second, different market structures can influence governments' preferences about free trade versus subsidies. Further, if one of the firms is a potential leader, allowing for endogenous market structure generates equilibrium outcomes that sometime reinforce, and sometimes counter, received results in the extant strategic trade literature. For example, when firms compete in quantities, endogenous market structure results in Cournot-Nash competition, but competition in prices results in a leader-follower structure when the goods are substitutes, but a Cournot-Nash structure when the goods are complements.

Abstract: The new JET ITER-like wall (made of beryllium and tungsten) is more fragile than the former carbon fiber composite wall and requires active protection to prevent excessive heat loads on the plasma facing components (PFC). Analog CCD cameras operating in the near infrared wavelength are used to measure surface temperature of the PFCs. Region of interest (ROI) analysis is performed in real time and the maximum temperature measured in each ROI is sent to the vessel thermal map. The protection of the ITER-like wall system started in October 2011 and has already successfully led to a safe landing of the plasma when hot spots were observed on the Be main chamber PFCs. Divertor protection is more of a challenge due to dust deposits that often generate false hot spots. In this contribution we describe the camera, data capture and real time processing systems. We discuss the calibration strategy for the temperature measurements with cross validation with thermal IR cameras and bi-color pyrometers. Most importantly, we demonstrate that a protection system based on CCD cameras can work and show examples of hot spot detections that stop the plasma pulse. The limits of such a design and the associated constraints on the operations are also presented.

Abstract: The edge light detection and ranging (LIDAR) Thomson scattering diagnostic at the Joint European Torus fusion experiment uses a 3 J ruby laser to measure the electron density and temperature profile at the plasma edge. The original system used a 1 GHz digitizer and detectors with response times of approximately 650 ps and effective quantum efficiencies7%. This system has recently been enhanced with the installation of a new 8 GHz digitizer and four new ultrafast GaAsP microchannel plate photomultiplier tube detectors with response times of300 ps and effective quantum efficiencies in the range of approximately 13%-20% (averaged over lambda=500-700 nm). This upgrade has enabled the spatial resolution to be reduced to approximately 6.3 cm along the laser line of sight for a laser pulse of 300 ps full width at half maximum, which is close to the requirements for the ITER core LIDAR. Performance analysis shows that the new system will have an effective spatial resolution of up to 1 cm in the magnetic midplane via magnetic flux surface mapping.
