Model of real time ITER plasma position, shape and current control on base of DINA code
Poloidal field magnetic control in tokamak has the essential functions of stabilizing the vertical instability inherent in elongated cross-sections, and in keeping the plasma shape, position and current nearly reference even in presence of internal plasma disturbances such as sawteeth, minor disruptions, ELMs and other transients. Poloidal magnetic control comprises in adjusting of the tokamak ...
متن کاملOptimization of experimental snowflake configurations on TCV
The design of a snowflake (SF) equilibrium requires a strong effort on the poloidal field (PF) currents in terms of MAturns and mechanical loads. This has limited the maximum plasma current in SF configurations on Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV) to values well below the intrinsic MHD limits. In this paper the definition of optimized snowflake (SF) configurations in TCV and their experime...
متن کاملEquilibrium and stability code for a diffuse plasma.
A computer code to investigate the equilibrium and stability of a diffuse plasma in three dimensions is described that generalizes earlier work on a sharp free boundary model. Toroidal equilibria of a plasma are determined by considering paths of steepest descent associated with a new version of the variational principle of magnetohydrodynamics that involves mapping a fixed coordinate domain on...
متن کاملSimulations of ITER Disruption and VDE scenarios with TSC and comparison with DINA results
Vertical Displacement Events (VDEs) and plasma current disruptions can seriously degrade the lifetime of in-vessel components in ITER, as large electromagnetic and thermal loads can be induced at such events. Hence, accurate modelling of such events is crucial for estimating disruption induced forces. In the past, ITER disruption modelling has been carried out using the DINA code. However, sinc...
متن کاملArbitrary Lagrangian-eulerian (ale) Code for Plasma Simulations
Lagrangian codes with mesh moving with the fluid suffer in many cases by mesh distortion leading to tangled mesh which in principle stops the computation as basic assumptions of the numerical method as e.g. positive volume of cells are not valid any more. Arbitrary LagrangianEulerian (ALE) method overcomes this difficulty by untangling or smoothing the mesh and conservative remapping of conserv...
