Electromagnetic gyrokinetic-ion drift-fluid-electron hybrid simulation
Progress on gyrokinetic-ion drift-fluid-electron hybrid simulation is reported. Simulation results are shown from a threedimensional toroidal electromagnetic simulation using field-line-following coordinates. It is found that for β & 1.5% there is strong destabilization of Alfvénic ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) driven instabilities. Nonlinear results show a corresponding increase in the the io...
متن کاملA gyrokinetic ion zero electron inertia fluid electron model for turbulence simulations
This paper describes the formulation of a hybrid model with fully gyrokinetic ions and a zero-inertia fluid model for the electrons. The electron fluid equations are derived from moments of the drift kinetic equation, taking the small mass ratio limit, but with finite electron temperature. This model eliminates the inertial Alfvén wave and any physics relating to electron transit motion, making...
متن کاملArbitrary plasma shape and trapped electron modes in the GEM gyrokinetic electromagnetic turbulence simulation code
Here the recent developments in GEM, a quite comprehensive Gyrokinetic Electromagnetic (GEM) turbulence code are described. GEM is a δf particle turbulence simulation code that has kinetic electrons and electromagnetic perturbations. The key elements of the GEM algorithm are: (1) the parallel canonical formulation of the gyrokinetic system of equations [1]; (2) an adjustable split-weight scheme...
متن کاملVerification of electromagnetic fluid-kinetic hybrid electron model in global gyrokinetic particle simulation
The fluid-kinetic hybrid electron model is verified in global gyrokinetic particle simulation of linear electromagnetic drift-Alfv enic instabilities in tokamak. In particular, we have recovered the b-stabilization of the ion temperature gradient mode, transition to collisionless trapped electron mode, and the onset of kinetic ballooning mode as be (ratio of electron kinetic pressure to magneti...
متن کاملA 5D gyrokinetic full-f global semi-Lagrangian code for flux-driven ion turbulence simulations
This paper addresses non-linear gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient (ITG) turbulence in tokamak plasmas. The electrostatic Gysela code is one of the few international 5D gyrokinetic codes able to perform global, full-f and flux-driven simulations. Its has also the numerical originality of being based on a semi-Lagrangian (SL) method. This reference paper for the Gysela code pres...
