Abstract: Since the last IAEA-FEC in 2021, significant progress on the development of long pulse steady state scenario and its related key physics and technologies have been achieved, including the reproducible 403 s long-pulse steady-state H-mode plasma with pure radio frequency (RF) power heating. A thousand-second time scale (∼1056 s) fully non-inductive plasma with high injected energy up to 1.73 GJ has also been achieved. The EAST operational regime of high β _P has been significantly extended ( H _98y2 > 1.3, β _P ∼ 4.0, β _N ∼ 2.4 and n _e / n _GW ∼ 1.0) using RF and neutral beam injection (NBI). The full edge localized mode suppression using the n = 4 resonant magnetic perturbations has been achieved in ITER-like standard type-I ELMy H-mode plasmas with q _95 ≈ 3.1 on EAST, extrapolating favorably to the ITER baseline scenario. The sustained large ELM control and stable partial detachment have been achieved with Ne seeding. The underlying physics of plasma-beta effect for error field penetration, where toroidal effect dominates, is disclosed by comparing the results in cylindrical theory and MARS-Q simulation in EAST. Breakdown and plasma initiation at low toroidal electric fields (

2. Numerical study of a general criterion for divertor detachment control

Abstract: The parameter $R_\mathrm{D} = P_\mathrm{rad}/P_\mathrm{cond}$ , which measures the ratio of radiated power to conductive heat flux at downstream Scrape-Off-Layer (SOL), is proposed as a robust and practically useful figure of merit for divertor detachment control. The simulations performed using the SOLEDGE3X-EIRENE code predict that the instant where $R_\mathrm{D}$ passes through unity (that is, when $P_\mathrm{rad} \approx P_\mathrm{cond}$ ) coincides with the detachment of the radiation front from the divertor target. Furthermore, as a function of $R_\mathrm{D}$ , there is a decrease in target temperature and an increase in the distance at which the radiation front detaches from the target. These simulations cover scenarios in WEST and TCV with different levels of confinement, divertor closure, impurity concentration, and input power. The physical rationale underlying the above definition of $R_\mathrm{D}$ is that when the divertor radiated power is comparable to the conductive heat flux, there will be a lack of energy reaching the target. Consequently, the radiation front detaches some distance from the divertor target. $R_\mathrm{D}$ can thus be a good indicator for transitions to and from the detachment state. By monitoring $R_\mathrm{D}$ , it becomes easier to maintain the heat flux deposition at the target at a manageable level. The evaluation of $R_\mathrm{D}$ requires diagnostic measurement of downstream SOL radiation and upstream temperature which is feasible in tokamak devices. The robustness of this figure of merit is evaluated through realistic time-dependent numerical simulations for the WEST tokamak, as well as experimental data from WEST, TCV, and JT-60U cases. The results show that $R_\mathrm{D}$ is capable of capturing the evolution of divertor plasma states, despite the different discharges and machines, suggesting that $R_\mathrm{D}$ can serve as a valuable control variable for real-time experimental divertor detachment control.

3. Plasma exposure of a pre-damaged ITER-like plasma facing unit in the WEST tokamak: in-situ and post-mortem measurements

Abstract: The consequences of tungsten (W) cracking on divertor lifetime and plasma operation are high priority issues for ITER. One actively cooled ITER-like plasma facing unit (PFU) has been pre-damaged in a High Heat Flux (HHF) facility before its installation in WEST in order to assess the damage evolution after tokamak plasma exposure. The resulting pre-damage exhibits micrometer-size crack network and high roughness on the tungsten monoblock (MB) top surface. A total of 10 MBs, equally distributed on the low and high field sides of the lower divertor, have been pre-damaged among the 35 radially aligned MBs characteristic of the WEST PFU. Subsequent plasma exposure was carried out, from the first breakdown achieved in WEST (in 2017) until the removal of the damaged PFU three years later (2020). On top of the whole WEST plasma exposure (covering C1-C4 experimental campaigns), a dedicated experiment has also been performed in the frame of the EU work program to maximize the power and energy loads on one of the damaged MBs featuring a “crack network” pattern. The MB top surface, including both “crack network” damage and “healthy” (undamaged) areas, was monitored with a high spatial resolution IR camera to detect any potential evolution of the damage pulse after pulse. This paper describes the full plasma exposure achieved in the WEST tokamak (including large number of steady-state and transient heat loading cycles), the dedicated “damaged PFU exposure” experiment together with the experimental results (heat loading on the damaged MBs). Post-mortem measurement reveals significant broadening of the cracks and new cracks in the electron beam loaded area only.

4. On the interplay between interchange turbulence and sheared flows

Abstract: International audience; The presence and the position of an X-point, namely, if the ion diamagnetic drift points toward it or not, strongly impact the edge plasma rotation in tokamaks. In the absence of kinetic effects such as magnetic ripple or ion orbit loss, the shape of the velocity profile results from the balance between neoclassical predictions and turbulent flow generation. In this contribution, we derive a reduced model of turbulence plunged in a shear flow. This model is based on (1) a description of the impact of a sheared flow on the interchange turbulence and (2) a prediction of the poloidal momentum generated by the turbulence. It includes the effects of both the magnetic topology and the finite shear layer width. The model is verified against 2D non-linear flux-driven simulations. Finally, the model predictions of the edge rotation resulting from the equilibrium between the neoclassical prediction and the poloidal momentum generation by the turbulence are invoked to describe the observations from experiment managed in the WEST tokamak. It points out the important role of the magnetic shear in the turbulence tilting and in the flow generation.

5. The Commissioning of the WEST Tokamak: Experience and Lessons Learned

Abstract: The integrated commissioning of the tungsten (W) environment in steady-state tokamak (WEST) was started with the superconducting magnet cool-down and completed one year after by the injection of 2.5 MW of additional power. It consisted of several steps: local system commissioning, integrated commissioning without plasma, and first plasma operation. This article reviews these WEST commissioning phases and highlights the experiences and the lessons learned. The magnet cooling down operation was initiated in late September 2016. The vacuum vessel was pumped out three weeks before the first plasma. The impregnation and curing of the two in-vessel divertor coils was performed at 180 °C during two days contributing to the baking of the vacuum vessel. In the meanwhile, rehearsal sessions for testing the CODAC systems were organized every month. The toroidal, poloidal, and divertor field coils were energized and their performance was tested successfully allowing moving to the first plasma operation phase. After a few attempts, plasma breakdown was achieved confirming that all systems were properly running and synchronized. Due to several micro air leaks on fiber optic feedthroughs and issues with the design of the in-vessel stabilizing plates, plasma current ramp-up could not be achieved in a first step. Once these issues have been fixed, confined plasmas could be obtained. Diverted plasmas were then achieved and the plasma current was increased up to 800 kA for more than 10 s. Up to 2.5 MW of additional power was eventually successfully coupled to the plasma.

6. A κ−ε model for plasma anomalous transport in tokamaks: closure via the scaling of the global confinement

Abstract: A reduced model for radial anomalous transport of plasma in tokamaks, inspired by the Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) approach, is presented assuming diffusion as governing mechanism. In order to self-consistently calculate transport coefficients, an empirical equation is built for the turbulent kinetic energy and the system is closed via the scaling law of global confinement. In such way the SOL width appears to recover experimental dependencies with respect to machine parameters and interestingly, when the model is implemented in a 2D transport code for a realistic study-case, mean fields retrieve some features already observed in 1st-principle turbulent codes.

Abstract: International audience; Plasma heating in the full Tungsten (W) Environment in Steady-state Tokamak (WEST) relies on electromagnetic waves in both Lower Hybrid (LH) and Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequencies (ICRF). The present study focuses mostly on the optimization of discharges heated with ICRF, by reporting different methods to first optimize wave coupling, optimize their absorption and reduce the impurity production. It is shown that ICRF coupling can be optimized either by moving the plasma closer to antennas, increasing the plasma density, wave frequency and LH power. We show that the absorption efficiency correlates with the hydrogen concentration with the existence of an optimum between 7 and 10% as expected for a minority heating scenario. Absolutely calibrated visible spectroscopy sightlines were used to monitor ion fluxes in different locations as part of an effort to quantitively estimate the contribution of different impurity sources to the core contamination by tungsten. It is typically found that in discharges with high total RF-power (above 5MW of LH and 3MW of ICRF), divertor and antenna limiter sources can reach similar order of magnitude during the ICRF phase.

Please note that, during the production process, errors may be discovered which could affect the content, and all legal disclaimers that apply to the journal pertain.; International audience; WEST is a full metallic tokamak with an extensive set of diagnostics for heat load measurements. In this paper, heat loads on the lower divertor of WEST are investigated using two independent methods. A first method relies on the thermal inversion of temperature measurements from arrays of thermal sensors embedded a few millimeters below the surface, while the second consists in the inversion of black body surface temperatures measured by infra-red (IR) thermography. The challenge of IR based temperature measurements in the full metal environment of WEST is addressed through a simplified model, allowing to correct for global reflections and low surface emissivities of tungsten surfaces. A large database ( L-mode discharges) is investigated. It is found that the energy absorbed by an outer divertor tile during a plasma discharge is closely estimated by the two diagnostics, over a large set of experimental conditions. A similar match is also found for the peak heat flux value on the outer target. The toroidal modulation of target heat loads by magnetic ripple is found to be consistent with the geometrical projection of a parallel heat flux component. Additionally, the heat flux channel width at the target is found to scale linearly with the magnetic flux expansion as expected. These observations give confidence in the robustness of the data from both diagnostics, and confirm the simple geometrical rules at use in the description of heat flux deposition on divertor targets. However, it is shown that the heat flux channel width estimated from infra-red thermography is about three times lower than the width estimated from embedded measurements, which is still under investigation.

Abstract: Fluid models used to study the edge plasma region need to be benchmarked against similar conditions given that models can strongly differ in complexity and therefore the results they produce. Via this validation study undertaken through the framework of EUROfusion Enabling Research, four state-of-the art models—GBS, Hermes/BOUT++, hot-edge-sol-electrostatic and TOKAM3X—are compared to experimental plasma turbulence measurements on the ISTTOK tokamak. Statistical comparisons of simulation and experiment data show that fluid models used here can replicate most of the experiment in terms of I sat and V float fluctuations despite their differences. Furthermore, it is shown that without including more complex information (like core turbulence information and domain geometry details and magnetic topological aspects) in fluid models, the results recovered vary from their experimental counterparts. Via the simulations using these codes, it is demonstrated that fluid models continue to be a good cost-effective tool in recovering many global aspects of edge plasma behaviour.

Abstract: see also: http://west.cea.fr/WESTteam; International audience; In the WEST tokamak, ITER-like divertor targets consisting of tungsten monoblocks bonded via an OHFC-Cu compliance layer to CuCrZr cooling tubes were exposed to plasma during the 2018 experimental campaign in which modest heating power was available. Up to 2.5 MW/m$^2$ divertor surface heat flux was attained. Inspection of the components after the campaign revealed a wide variety of damage at both leading and trailing monoblock edges, and at the optical hot spots which are the projections along magnetic field lines of the toroidal gaps between monoblocks onto the poloidal leading edges. Cracking, deformation, and melting occurred. Consideration of the large body of past work on high heat flux testing, combined with the expected loading conditions in WEST, suggests that fractures form during the first transient events such as disruptions. Deformation occurs under subsequent exposure to steady state heat loads. Nearly identical damage was observed on reciprocating probes made of W-La(10%) alloy under measured irradiation conditions, lending credence to this hypothesis.

Abstract: International audience; Nitrogen (N2) will be used in ITER to enhance the radiative fraction to ~90%, thereby cooling the edge plasma and preventing damage to the plasma-facing components. However, the reactivity of N2 with hydrogen isotopes can lead to the formation of tritiated ammonia (NT3). This should be considered in terms of the in-vessel tritium inventory, the regeneration of the cryo pumps, and the processes in the ITER de-tritiation plant. In the 'W' Environment in Steady-state Tokamak (WEST), a series of long L-mode discharges (~50 s), with a constant N2 seeding from the outer strike point region has been performed on the upper actively cooled divertor. In the absence of active pumping, the N2 balance shows steady-state retention during plasma discharge, and is partially (~35%) released in between discharges. Although a significant amount of N2( 18.65 Pa m3) has been injected, the wall still exhibited N2 pumping capabilities. Under these conditions, as long as this N2 reservoir is not saturated, there is not enough N available for the detectable threshold of ND3 formation to be reached. In these WEST experiments, no ammonia is detected during the pulse or after the pulse in the outgassing phase. These results are consistent with and complementary to the N2 seeded experiments performed in the Joint European Torus (JET) with its ITER-like wall and in the Axially Symmetric Divertor Experiment (ASDEX) upgrade.

Abstract: In this paper, a method was developed to estimate in-situ the emissivity of the W-coated graphite divertor tiles in the WEST tokamak. This method is based on the double heating method and take advantages of the divertor temperature increase after successive plasma experiments due to the inertial behavior of the plasma facing components. Photonic calculations have been used to disentangle the emitted and the reflected parts in the measured radiances from the infrared system. The uncertainty as well as the robustness of the method have been investigated thanks to the wide IR and thermocouple coverage in the WEST divertor. The results show strong variation of the emissivity along the divertor W surfaces with a factor 4 variation after the experimental campaigns including 18.3 GJ and about 21 000 s of cumulated injected energy and duration, respectively. Finally, the implication of a non-uniform emissivity on heat flux estimation from IR measurements is discussed, showing that non-uniform emissivity must be considered to obtain an accurate heat flux decay width.

Abstract: International audience; The impact of magnetic configuration on edge turbulence properties in circular limiter geometry is investigated using TOKAM3X, a three-dimensional (3D), first-principle, fluid code for edge plasma. The theoretical spatial tilting of magnetic shear on turbulence fluctuations is recovered. Magnetic shear is found to generate or enhance poloidal high/low field sides (HFS/LFS) and up/down asymmetries. A simulation mimicking the impact of an X-point on circular limiter geometry leads to the formation of two transport barriers that are stable in time, thus leading to the improvement of core particle confinement and to reduction of radial turbulent transport. The magnetic shear, which also strongly enhances the E × B shear, is responsible for the barrier formation.

Abstract: International audience; In this paper, a κ−ϵ transport model is presented as a turbulence reduction tool for a typical ohmic L‐mode discharge plasma in a divertor‐configurated tokamak. Taking a Tokamak à configuration variable (TCV) study case, a feedback loop procedure is performed using the SolEdge2D code to acquire plasma diffusivity at the outer mid‐plane. The κ−ϵ model is calibrated through its free parameters with the aim of recovering the diffusivity calculated in the feedback procedure. Finally, it is shown that the model can self‐consistently calculate diffusivity in the whole domain, recovering the poloidal asymmetries due to interchange instabilities.

Abstract: The consequences of tungsten (W) melting on divertor lifetime and plasma operation are high priority issues for ITER. Sustained and controlled W-melting experiment has been achieved for the first time in WEST on a poloidal sharp leading edge of an actively cooled ITER-like plasma facing unit (PFU). A series of dedicated high power steady state plasma discharges were performed to reach the melting point of tungsten. The leading edge was exposed to a parallel heat flux of about 100 MW.m−2 for up to 5 s providing a melt phase of about 2 s without noticeable impact of melting on plasma operation (radiated power and tungsten impurity content remained stable at constant input power) and no melt ejection were observed. The surface temperature of the MB was monitored by a high spatial resolution (0.1 mm/pixel) infrared camera viewing the melt zone from the top of the machine. The melting discharge was repeated three times resulting in about 6 s accumulated melting duration leading to material displacement from three similar pools. Cumulated on the overall sustained melting periods, this leads to excavation depth of about 230 μm followed by a re-solidified tungsten bump of 200 μm in the JxB direction.

Abstract: The relation between turbulent transport and scrape off layer width is investigated in circular plasmas toroidally limited on the inner wall. A broad set of experimental observations collected in the Tore Supra scrape off layer is detailed and compared to turbulent interchange models. Blob E × B drift velocities measured in experiments agree reasonably well with an analytical model derived for isolated blobs. Based on a time averaged particle flux balance, it is also shown that the SOL width depends on both the blob drift velocity and a blob intermittency parameter, which is so far not predicted by isolated blob models. A set of 2D isothermal turbulence simulations are used to derive a power law regression of the density width function of global control parameters. Quantitative agreement is found between this regression and experimental density widths measured in Tore Supra, over a large set of plasma conditions. The sensitivity to control parameters (major radius, safety factor and normalized Larmor radius) is roughly explained by the sensitivity of the blob velocity model. The predictions are also extended to power decay length in limited plasma configurations. For ITER start-up phases, the predicted power decay length fall in the range of extrapolations based on multi-machine regressions.

A significant increase of ExB shear is observed in the forward-B configuration that could explain a favorable L-H transition in this case. Keywords: Edge modeling, Edge plasma, Drifts

Abstract: The first lower hybrid current drive experiments in the full tungsten WEST tokamak are reported. Good wave coupling is found at rather low plasma current (q95∼4.3) and medium density (ne∼3×1019m-3). Reflection coefficient is in agreement with the expectation from the linear theory of coupling. With low reflection coefficients, 5MW was coupled for 2 seconds. High central electron temperature, up to 5keV, is achieved at ne = 3-4×1019m-3. Flat and even hollow profiles of tungsten density are derived from the bolometry diagnostic. The stored thermal energy follows the H96-P scaling law with very slight degradation with density. The current drive efficiency has been assessed in low loop voltage (VL∼0.15V) discharges. Low plasma current operation and rather high effective charge (Zeff∼3) lead to modest current drive efficiency (ƞ = 0.5-0.65 × 1019 A.W−1m-2). Long pulse operation (∼30s) with high LHCD power (PLH=2.7MW) is achieved with stationary parameters, in particular electron and impurity densities, with the upper water-cooled tungsten divertor.

Abstract: Plasma exhaust has been identified as a major challenge towards the realisation of magnetic confinement fusion. To mitigate the risk that the single null divertor (SND) with a high radiation fraction in the scrape-of-layer (SOL) adopted for ITER will not extrapolate to a DEMO reactor, the EUROfusion consortium is assessing potential benefits and engineering challenges of alternative divertor configurations. Alternative configurations that could be readily adopted in a DEMO design include the X divertor (XD), the Super-X divertor (SXD), the Snowflake divertor (SFD) and the double null divertor (DND). The flux flaring towards the divertor target of the XD is limited by the minimum grazing angle at the target set by gaps and misalignments. The characteristic increase of the target radius in the SXD is a trade-off with the increased TF coil volume, but, ultimately, also limited by forces onto coils. Engineering constraints also limit XD and SXD characteristics to the outer divertor leg with a solution for the inner leg requiring up-down symmetric configurations. Capital cost increases with respect to a SND configuration are largest for SXD and SFD, which require both significantly more poloidal field coil conductors and in the case of the SXD also more toroidal field coil conductors. Boundary models with increasing degrees of complexity have been used to predict the beneficial effect of the alternative configurations on exhaust performance. While all alternative configurations should decrease the power that must be radiated in the outer divertor, only the DND and possibly the SFD also ease the radiation requirements in the inner divertor. These decreases of the radiation requirements are however expected to be small making the ability of alternative divertors to increase divertor radiation without excessive core performance degradation their main advantage. Initial 2D fluid modeling of argon seeding in XD and SFD configurations indicate such advantages over the SND, while results for SXD and DND are still pending. Additional improvements, expected from increased turbulence in the low poloidal field region of the SFD also remain to be verified. A more precise comparison with the SND as well as absolute quantitative predictions for all configurations requires more complete physics models that are currently only being developed.

Abstract: International audience; The SOLEDGE-EIRENE edge plasma code provides solutions for particle and energy transport in the plasma edge within complex and realistic 2D geometries (Bufferand et al 2015 Nucl. Fusion 55 053025). In this work, divertor detachment is simulated on HL-2M alternative magnetic configurations in pure deuterium plasma. Starting from a typical HL-2M low single-null configuration, the snowflake plus (SF+) and snowflake minus (SF-) configurations have then been investigated. Detachment of the outer target is studied in these configurations during plasma density ramps controlled by a fueling source, with constant input power and constant radial transport coefficients. Some typical characteristics of detachment, like threshold, depth and upstream window of detachment are investigated. In the three geometries, detachment onset and evolution with upstream plasma density is characterized by the gradual displacement of a radiation front from the outer target to the main X-point, as observed in experiments. It is found that, whatever the detachment in terms of particle, momentum or power dissipation, the detachment threshold is dominated primarily by the geometrical structure of the divertor plate and does not exhibit dependence on the magnetic configuration of the diverted plasma volume. In particular, the parallel connection length in the divertor is not found to affect the detachment threshold, in contrast with simple expectations from the two-point model, but in agreement with experimental findings.

Abstract: International audience; We study the effect of a diverted magnetic geometry on edge plasma turbulence, focusing on the three-dimensional structure and dynamics of filaments, also called blobs, in simulations of the WEST tokamak, featuring a primary and secondary X-point. For this purpose, in addition to classical analysis techniques, we apply here a novel fully 3D Blob Recognition And Tracking (BRAT) algorithm, allowing for the first time to resolve the three-dimensional structure and dynamics of the blobs in a turbulent 3D plasma featuring a realistic magnetic geometry. The results are tested against existing theoretical scalings of blob velocity [Myra et al, Physics of Plasmas 2006]. The complementary analysis of the 3D structure of the filaments shows how they disconnect from the divertor plate in the vicinity of the X-points, leading to a transition from a sheath-connected regime to the ideal-interchange one. Furthermore, the numerical results show non-negligible effects of the turbulent background plasma: approximately half of the detected filaments are involved in mutual interactions, eventually resulting in negative radial velocities, and a fraction of the filaments is generated by turbulence directly below the X-point.

Abstract: We present first results of SOLEDGE-EIRENE modeling a strongly radiating plasma in the WEST tokamak. Using measurements from a reciprocating Langmuir probe we have determined the SOLEDGE input parameters, i.e. separatrix density at outboard midplane and radial transport coefficients typical of L-mode plasma. We have performed deuterium plasma simulations with presence of oxygen, injected from the core boundary into the simulation domain. The comparison between the radiated power measured from the bolometry in the divertor region and the one computed from SOLEDGE simulations seems to indicate a concentration of oxygen of about 2%. Moreover we have obtained good agreement between simulation results and experimental measurements on electron density and electron temperature profiles at the outer strike point. First qualitative analysis of spectroscopic synthetic diagnostic on Dα signals is also presented. Keywords: Edge tokamak plasma, Transport, Fluid modeling

Abstract: International audience; In 2018, Ion Cyclotron Resonant Frequency (ICRF) waves were for the first time applied to the WEST plasmascenarios. In ICRF-only plasmas at medium density, or on top of a low level of Lower Hybrid (LH) power, the coupledICRF power increases the plasma energy content. However in discharges with large LH power at high core density, nearlyall the applied ICRF power gets radiated, mainly in the plasma bulk. Both the energy content and conducted power decrease.Two peculiarities of WEST, that may combine, are presently invoked to explain this phenomenology:1) Fast ion ripplelosses, evidenced between TF coils on the baffle, likely degrade the ICRF heating efficiency. 2) RF-enhanced W sources,evidenced on several Plasma-Facing Components (PFCs), likely over-contaminate the high-power plasmas.

Abstract: This study compares experimental observations on plasma surface interactions and heat loads induced by Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ICRH) in WEST medium size tokamak. When powering ICRH, core contamination by metallic impurities systematically results in an increase of the power radiated, often hardening the achievement of long discharges in H-mode at high power. The radiofrequency (RF) sheaths are excited mainly at proximity of ICRF antennas, resulting in an increase of metallic impurity sources. In the presence of RF sheaths, we show that most of the power reaching the wall can become carried by ions. Therefore, both heat loads and material sputtering are the result of ion fluxes on the various plasma facing components, such that some analogy between both phenomena can be made. By combining infrared with spectroscopic measurements, we show experimental evidences from WEST of RF-induced heat fluxes and their correlation with local production of impurity.

28. Interchange Turbulence Model for the Edge Plasma in SOLEDGE2D-EIRENE

Abstract: Cross-field transport in edge tokamak plasmas is known to be dominated by turbulent transport. A dedicated effort has been made to simulate this turbulent transport from first principle models but the numerical cost to run these simulations on the ITER scale remains prohibitive. Edge plasma transport study relies mostly nowadays on so-called transport codes where the turbulent transport is taken into account using effective ad-hoc diffusion coeffecients. In this contribution, we propose to introduce a transport equation for the turbulence intensity in SOLEDGE2D-EIRENE to describe the interchange turbulence properties. Going beyond the empirical diffusive model, this system automatically generates profiles for the turbulent transport and hence reduces the number of degrees of freedom for edge plasma transport codes. We draw inspiration from the k-epsilon model widely used in the neutral fluid community. ((c) 2016 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Abstract: This study uses the diversity of materials at known locations in the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) to extract, local information on which plasma-surface interaction processes are dominant during Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ICRH) (near vs far field effects). Metallic impurity content is indicated by the intensity of impurity line emissions observed with a fast-time-response extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectrometer, normalized to line-averaged plasma density, i.e. Iimp/ne. Parametric dependencies are explored over scans of ICRH and LH (Lower Hybrid) power and for different toroidal phasings between straps, strap power balance, and magnetic configurations. This diversity of behavior is interpreted as the signature of different physical processes. Before 2017, as only the upper divertor region contained tungsten (W), the W content in the core used to increase a lot when moving from lower (LSN) to upper single null (USN) configurations, and was correlated with the total injected power rather than the ICRH power. Molybdenum (Mo), covering the part of the inner wall facing one ICRF antenna appear sensitive to this antenna power and phasing benchmarked by modelling suggesting a probable interaction due to residual ICRF waves crossing the plasma. Materials close and magnetically-connected to an active antenna show better correlation with ICRF antenna electrical tuning than those which are far away, or not connected. This is particularly the case with W since 2018, because the limiter tiles of the LH launchers were changed from graphite to tungsten. In these latter conditions, it is shown that W sources at the mid-plane (equatorial plane) contribute to a significant fraction of the core contamination by tungsten (25% in ohmic regime, and more during ICRH).

Abstract: The research program of the TCV tokamak ranges from conventional to advanced-tokamak scenarios and alternative divertor configurations, to exploratory plasmas driven by theoretical insight, exploiting the device's unique shaping capabilities. Disruption avoidance by real-time locked mode prevention or unlocking with electron-cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) was thoroughly documented, using magnetic and radiation triggers. Runaway generation with high-Z noble-gas injection and runaway dissipation by subsequent Ne or Ar injection were studied for model validation. The new 1 MW neutral beam injector has expanded the parameter range, now encompassing ELMy H-modes in an ITER-like shape and nearly non-inductive H-mode discharges sustained by electron cyclotron and neutral beam current drive. In the H-mode, the pedestal pressure increases modestly with nitrogen seeding while fueling moves the density pedestal outwards, but the plasma stored energy is largely uncorrelated to either seeding or fueling. High fueling at high triangularity is key to accessing the attractive small edge-localized mode (type-II) regime. Turbulence is reduced in the core at negative triangularity, consistent with increased confinement and in accord with global gyrokinetic simulations. The geodesic acoustic mode, possibly coupled with avalanche events, has been linked with particle flow to the wall in diverted plasmas. Detachment, scrape-off layer transport, and turbulence were studied in L- and H-modes in both standard and alternative configurations (snowflake, super-X, and beyond). The detachment process is caused by power 'starvation' reducing the ionization source, with volume recombination playing only a minor role. Partial detachment in the H-mode is obtained with impurity seeding and has shown little dependence on flux expansion in standard single-null geometry. In the attached L-mode phase, increasing the outer connection length reduces the in-out heat-flow asymmetry. A doublet plasma, featuring an internal X-point, was achieved successfully, and a transport barrier was observed in the mantle just outside the internal separatrix. In the near future variable-configuration baffles and possibly divertor pumping will be introduced to investigate the effect of divertor closure on exhaust and performance, and 3.5 MW ECRH and 1 MW neutral beam injection heating will be added., This work was supported in part by the Swiss National Science Foundation.

Abstract: Within the EUROfusion MST1 work package, a series of experiments has been conducted on AUG and TCV devices to disentangle the role of plasma fueling and plasma shape for the onset of small ELM regimes. On both devices, small ELM regimes with high confinement are achieved if and only if two conditions are fulfilled at the same time. Firstly, the plasma density at the separatrix must be large enough (), leading to a pressure profile flattening at the separatrix, which stabilizes type-I ELMs. Secondly, the magnetic configuration has to be close to a double null (DN), leading to a reduction of the magnetic shear in the extreme vicinity of the separatrix. As a consequence, its stabilizing effect on ballooning modes is weakened. Peer Reviewed Article escrit per 365 autors/autores: Labit, B.; Eich, T.; Harrer, G. F.; Wolfrum, E.; Bernert, M.; Dunne, M.

Abstract: The edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) plasma of the inter-ELM phase of an H-mode discharge from the TCV tokamak is modeled with the transport code SolEdge2D-EIRENE (Bufferand et al. Nuclear Fusion 55 (2015)). The numerical simulations, in presence and in absence of C impurities sputtered from the first wall, are presented and compared with the experiments, finding an overall good agreement. The application of the standard two-point model to the simulation results leads to an apparent momentum gain along the divertor leg. A two-fluid two-point model featuring thermally decoupled ions and electrons is introduced and applied to the simulation results, overcoming this apparent discrepancy.

Abstract: This paper presents the current wall-embedded Langmuir probe system installed on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV), as well as the analysis tool chain used to interpret the current-voltage characteristic obtained when the probes are operated in swept-bias conditions. The analysis is based on a four-parameter fit combined with a minimum temperature approach. In order to reduce the effect of plasma fluctuations and measurement noise, several current-voltage characteristics are usually averaged before proceeding to the fitting. The impact of this procedure on the results is investigated, as well as the possible role of finite resistances in the circuitry, which could lead to an overestimation of the temperature. We study the application of the procedure in a specific regime, the plasma detachment, where results from other diagnostics indicate that the electron temperature derived from the Langmuir probes might be overestimated. To address this issue, we explore other fitting models and, in particular, an extension of the asymmetric double probe fit, which features effects of sheath expansion. We show that these models yield lower temperatures (up to approximately 60%) than the standard analysis in detached conditions, particularly for a temperature peak observed near the plasma strike point, but a discrepancy with other measurements remains. We explore a possible explanation for this observation, the presence of a fast electron population, and assess how robust the different methods are in such conditions.

Abstract: International audience; The non-local expression proposed by Luciani-Mora-Virmont is implemented in a one dimensional fluid model for the scrape-off layer. Analytical solutions for heat equation are discussed as well as the impact of sheath boundary conditions on the continuity of the temperature profile. The non-local heat flux is compared to the Spitzer-Härm heat flux for different collisionality. KEYWORDS heat conduction, non-local transport, plasma physics 1 INTRODUCTION At the entrance of the scrape-off layer, the plasma collisionality í µí¼ ⋆ defined as the ratio between the field line length and collision mean free path is found to be of order unity. Despite this low collisionality, the tokamak edge plasma modelling relies mostly on the fluid approach and collisional closures that are theoretically only valid at high collisionality. Departure between Braginskii fluid description and kinetic modelling has been highlighted, particularly an underestimation of temperature gradient by the fluid approach. [1] Several kinetic corrections have been proposed to improve the plasma description at intermediate collisionality. [2-5] In this contribution, we investigate kinetic corrections to the local Spitzer-Härm (Braginskii) closure for the heat flux; more precisely, we focus on applying the non-local expression for the heat flux proposed by Luciani-Mora-Virmont [6] to scrape-off layer physics. In particular, we adapt boundary conditions and implement the non-local expression into a 1D hydrodynamic model for the scrape-off layer.

Abstract: International audience; The flux expansion effect on the Scrape-Off Layer equilibrium is inspected through TOKAM3X 3D turbulence simulations. Three magnetic equilibria with analytically controlled flux expansion are built, representing respectively a positive, a null and a negative Shafranov shift. Turbulent E × B fluxes across flux surfaces show similar amplitudes and poloidal distributions in all cases. The ballooning nature of the interchange instability is recovered, with an enhancement of turbulence in the vicinity of the limiter, probably due to a Kelvin–Helmoltz instability. Interestingly, the poloidally averaged density decay length is found to be shorter almost by a factor 2 in the case of flux surfaces compressed at the low-field side midplane, with respect to the opposite case, indicating the presence of unfavorable conditions for the turbulent transport. The difference in the magnetic field line shape is pointed out as a mechanism which affects the turbulent transport across the flux surfaces. Indeed the unstable region has a larger parallel extension when flux expansion in the low-field side is larger. Moreover, the configuration with a lower magnetic shear at the low-field side midplane shows a more unstable behavior. The role of this parameter in turbulence stabilization is qualitatively evaluated. The difference in the distribution of transport along the parallel direction is shown to affect also the parallel flows, which are analyzed for the three proposed cases.

Abstract: Simulations of WEST H-mode divertor scenarios have been performed with SOLEDGE2D-EIRENE edge plasma transport code, both for pure deuterium and nitrogen seeded discharge. In the pure deuterium case, a target heat flux of 8 MW/m2 is reached, but misalignment between heat and the particle outflux yields 50 eV plasma temperature at the target plates. With nitrogen seeding, the heat and particle outflux are observed to be aligned so that lower plasma temperatures at the target plates are achieved together with the required high heat fluxes. This change in heat and particle outflux alignment is analysed with respect to the role of divertor geometry and the impact of vertical vs horizontal target plates on neutrals spreading.

Abstract: A new method to measure power flux in strongly magnetized plasmas is described, while the flaws inherent in standard Langmuir probe techniques are demonstrated. Instead of small cylindrical pins which overestimate the ion current density by several 100%, a concave probe has been developed which is immune to sheath expansion, and which inherently provides accurate measurements. A retarding field analyzer directly measures the ion component of the power flux by means of an integral method that eliminates the need to calculate the heat transmission factor. Evidence shows that strong secondary electron emission from surfaces with non-oblique magnetic field incidence angles is ubiquitous in the scrape-off layer of the Tore Supra tokamak. This results in sheath collapse, causing the power flux to be dominated by the electrons. The radially integrated power flux measured by the probes agrees well with the power convected to the limiter.

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: New results from MAST are presented that focus on validating models in order to extrapolate to future devices. Measurements during start-up experiments have shown how the bulk ion temperature rise scales with the square of the reconnecting field. During the current ramp up models are not able to correctly predict the current diffusion. Experiments have been performed looking at edge and core turbulence. At the edge detailed studies have revealed how filament characteristic are responsible for determining the near and far SOL density profiles. In the core the intrinsic rotation and electron scale turbulence have been measured. The role that the fast ion gradient has on redistributing fast ions through fishbone modes has led to a redesign of the neutral beam injector on MAST Upgrade. In H-mode the turbulence at the pedestal top has been shown to be consistent with being due to electron temperature gradient modes. A reconnection process appears to occur during ELMs and the number of filaments released determines the power profile at the divertor. Resonant magnetic perturbations can mitigate ELMs provided the edge peeling response is maximised and the core kink response minimised. The mitigation of intrinsic error fields with toroidal mode number n>1 has been shown to be important for plasma performance., 34 pages, 10 figures.

Abstract: Proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Plasma-Surface Interactions in Controlled Fusion; International audience; We are interested here in modelling the electron and ion temperature fields, Te and Ti respectively, in order to understand the main trends that govern the ratio Ti/Te that is being better documented in the SOL with RFA probes and . The experimental evidence gathered from several devices indicates that this temperature ratio significantly exceeds unity in most data sets that have been analysed, including measurements in the SOL of limiter devices like Tore Supra. Several issues of interest have been addressed with this version of the SOLEDGE-2D code. First, we have analysed the width of the SOL heat channels to the wall components and compared these values to analytical expressions. The key control mechanism of the width of the SOL heat channel is given by a balance between the sheath boundary conditions and the transverse transport. More advanced simulations address the interplay between the edge and SOL plasma allowing one to recover regimes with Ti/Te > 1.

Abstract: International audience; Results on transport in the scrape-off-layer from a set of ohmic discharges in Tore Supra are discussed. The particle balance in the SOL is described trough a steady-state model that utilizes proﬁle measurements from reciprocating-probes. Experimental evidence of the non-uniformity in the poloïdal distribution of particle outﬂux is found, with the highest outﬂux being concentrated in a narrow sector at the outboard midplane. High and intermittent ﬂuctuations originating from the same outboard midplane sector are interpreted as the signature of the transport mechanisms that result in the time-averaged equilibrium. The radial convection of subsonic structures is assumed as the dominant transport process.

Abstract: International audience; The peak power flux densities from plasma ion bombardment on tokamak armor surfaces can deviate from geometric-optical projection when the ion thermal Larmor radius becomes comparable to the characteristic size of the surface relief (gaps, misalignments, shaping). We present a fast and reliable tool to estimate the effect of finite ion Larmor radius on heat load deposition for complex 3D elements. The two possible geometrical design options foreseen for WEST tungsten monoblocks are asymmetric chamfer shaping and no shaping on top of monoblocks. This paper presents an evaluation of peak power flux densities for a WEST ITER-like tungsten monoblock plasma facing component which is vertically misaligned with respect to the other components of a maximum expected value of +0.3 mm, for steady state convected plasma power with ion temperature ranging from 10 to 500 eV. With the +0.5 mm asymmetric chamfer, leading edges between plasma facing components are shadowed and there is no significant difference between the optical calculations and the full ion orbit model. For an unshaped and +0.3 mm misaligned monoblock, when considering the full ion orbit model, the heat load on the exposed edge is reduced by a factor of 3-5 compared to the geometric-optical projection. Energy is found to be deposited over several millimetres on top of the monoblock just after the leading edge which prevents the tungsten armor from melting. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract: Four numerical codes are employed to investigate the dynamics of scrape-off layer filaments in tokamak relevant conditions. Experimental measurements were taken in the MAST device using visual camera imaging, which allows the evaluation of the perpendicular size and velocity of the filaments, as well as the combination of density and temperature associated with the perturbation. A new algorithm based on the light emission integrated along the field lines associated with the position of the filament is developed to ensure that it is properly detected and tracked. The filaments are found to have velocities of the order of 1 km s(-1), a perpendicular diameter of around 2-3 cm and a density amplitude 2-3.5 times the background plasma. 3D and 2D numerical codes (the STORM module of BOUT++, GBS, HESEL and TOKAM3X) are used to reproduce the motion of the observed filaments with the purpose of validating the codes and of better understanding the experimental data. Good agreement is found between the 3D codes. The seeded filament simulations are also able to reproduce the dynamics observed in experiments with accuracy up to the experimental errorbar levels. In addition, the numerical results showed that filaments characterised by similar size and light emission intensity can have quite different dynamics if the pressure perturbation is distributed differently between density and temperature components. As an additional benefit, several observations on the dynamics of the filaments in the presence of evolving temperature fields were made and led to a better understanding of the behaviour of these coherent structures.

45. Measurement and modelling of suprathermal electron bursts generated in front of a lower hybrid antenna

Abstract: Measurements in the tokamak scrape-off layer show the existence of fast electrons as far as a few centimeters radially in front of a lower hybrid antenna grill, which is one order of magnitude further than earlier predictions of interaction zones not exceeding 5 mm in width (Rantamäki et al 2000 Nucl. Fusion 40 1477). The present contribution aims at understanding these experimental results on the basis of electron Landau damping in a turbulent scrape-off layer. A crucial guiding element from the experiments is the observation of temporal intermittency of the fast electron signal at positions radially away from the grill mouth at a rate comparable with the detachment rate of relatively hot and dense field-aligned plasma filaments, or ‘blobs,’ from the last closed flux surface. When the dynamic character of the scrape-off layer is taken into account, transient low density and low temperature states occur during which the Landau damping can be weak enough to allow the radiated spectrum to penetrate radially deep inward. When the lower hybrid wave intercepts a dense and hot ‘blob’ a few cm in front of the antenna, then strong damping of the high wave number components can occur. This is the scenario we propose for explaining the generation of fast electrons far away from the grill mouth.

Abstract: International audience; The poloidal asymmetries of parallel flows in edge plasmas are investigated by the 3D fluid turbulence code TOKAM3X. A diverted COMPASS-like magnetic equilibrium is used for the simulations. The measurements and simulations of parallel Mach numbers are compared, and exhibit good qualitative agreement. Small-scale turbulent transport is observed to dominate near the low field side midplane, even though it co-exists with significant large-scale cross-field fluxes. Despite the turbulent nature of the plasma in the divertor region, simulations show the low effectiveness of turbulence for the cross-field transport towards the private flux region. Nevertheless, a complex pattern of fluxes associated with the average field components are found to cross the separatrix in the divertor region. Large-scale and small-scale turbulent E x B transport, along with the del B drift, drive the asymmetries in parallel flows. A semian-alytical model based on mass and parallel momentum balances allows the poloidal drift effects on the asymmetry pattern to be evaluated. As in the experiments, a reversed B-T simulation provides a way of self-consistently separating the effects of turbulent transport and large-scale flows, which must be reversed for a reversed field. The large-scale contribution is found to be responsible for typically 50% of the effect on the Mach number, evaluated at the top of the machine. The presented picture shows the complex interplay between drifts and turbulence, underlining the necessity of a global approach to edge plasma modelling, including a self-consistent description of the turbulence.

Abstract: International audience; The 3D global edge turbulence code TOKAM3X is used to study the properties of edge particle turbulent transport in circular limited plasmas, including both closed and open flux surfaces. Turbulence is driven by an incoming particle flux from the core plasma and no scale separation between the equilibrium and the fluctuations is assumed. Simulations show the existence of a complex self-organization of turbulence transport coupling scales ranging from a few Larmor radii up to the machine scale. Particle transport is largely dominated by small scale turbulence with fluctuations forming quasi field-aligned filaments. Radial particle transport is intermittent and associated with the propagation of coherent structures on long distances via avalanches. Long range correlations are also found in the poloidal and toroidal direction. The statistical properties of fluctuations vary with the radial and poloidal directions, with larger fluctuation levels and intermittency found in the outboard scrape-off layer (SOL). Radial turbulent transport is strongly ballooned, with 90% of the flux at the separatrix flowing through the low-field side. One of the main consequences is the existence of quasi-sonic asymmetric parallel flows driving a net rotation of the plasma. Simulations also show the spontaneous onset of an intermittent E × B rotation characterized by a larger shear at the separatrix. Strong correlation is found between the turbulent particle flux and the E × B flow shear in a phenomenology reminiscent of H-mode physics. The poloidal position of the limiter is a key player in the observed dynamics.

Abstract: International audience; The influence of the plasma facing components material on the scrape-off layer plasma is investigated. In particular, the energy recycling is found to be more pronounced for tungsten wall compared with carbon wall. Edge plasma simulations performed with the transport code SOLEDGE2D-EIRENE show that this enhanced energy recycling in the tungsten case leads to an increase of the scrape-off layer temperature. Moreover, the energy recycling depends on the ion angle of incidence with the wall. A PIC code has been used to model the ion acceleration in the magnetic pre-sheath and determine the later angle of incidence. These simulations show that ions mostly impact the wall with rather shallow incident angles leading to a further increase of the energy recycling.

Abstract: Three new ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) launchers have been designed for the WEST project (W-Tungsten Environment in Steady-state Tokamak) in order to operate at 3 MW/launcher for 30 s and 1 MW/launcher for 1000 s on H-mode plasmas. These new launchers will be to date the first ICRH launchers to offer the unique combination of continuous-wave (CW) operation at high power and load tolerance capabilities for coupling on H-mode edge. The radio-frequency (RF) design optimization process has been carried out using full-wave electromagnetic solvers combined with electric circuit calculations. Cavity modes occurring between the launchers structures and the vacuum vessel ports have been evaluated and cleared out.

Abstract: A set of discharges performed with the JET ITER-like wall is investigated with respect to control capabilities on tungsten sources and transport. In attached divertor regimes, increasing fueling by gas puff results in higher divertor recycling ion flux, lower divertor tungsten source, higher ELM frequency and lower core plasma radiation, dominated by tungsten ions. Both pedestal flushing by ELMs and divertor screening (including redeposition) are possibly responsible. For specific scenarios, kicks in plasma vertical position can be employed to increase the ELM frequency, which results in slightly lower core radiation. The application of ion cyclotron radio frequency heating at the very center of the plasma is efficient to increase the core electron temperature gradient and flatten electron density profile, resulting in a significantly lower central tungsten peaking. Beryllium evaporation in the main chamber did not reduce the local divertor tungsten source whereas core radiation was reduced by approximately 50%.
