Feasibility of an MSE system on the TCV tokamak
This paper presents a feasibility study for a MSE diagnostic on the TCV tokamak. A numerical simulation code has been used to identify the optimal port arrangement and geometrical layout. It predicts the expected measurement accuracy for a range of typical plasma scenarios. With the existing Neutral Particle Injector and a detection system based on current day technology, it should be possible ...
متن کاملA new plant control software for the TCV tokamak
A new plant control software has been implemented on the TCV tokamak. The new system allows different tasks to be performed simultaneously. Individual systems can be selected for different tasks. When a task starts, it loads the selected systems which execute their actions. The task then releases each system as soon as it has finished with it. All tasks and systems have their own processes to e...
متن کاملElectron Bernstein Wave Heating and Emission in the TCV Tokamak
Electron cyclotron heating of high density plasmas is limited due to so-called wave cut-offs. The double mode conversion scheme from O-mode to X-mode and finally to Bernstein mode O-X-B offers the possibility to overcome this limit [1]-[4]. At a particular launching angle, an O-mode wave converts to X-mode at the plasma cut-off. The power transmission function T from Oto X-mode was derived in [...
متن کاملFrom profile to sawtooth control: developing feedback control using ECRH/ECCD systems on the TCV tokamak
Real time control of heating systems is essential to maximise plasma performance and avoid or neutralise instabilities under changing plasma conditions. Several feedback control algorithms have been developed on the TCV tokamak that use the electron cyclotron (ECRH/ECCD) system to control a wide range of plasma properties, including the plasma current, shape, profiles as well as the sawtooth in...
متن کاملOptimization, real-time simulation and feedback control of tokamak plasma profiles on TCV
Introduction Control of plasma profiles is an essential ingredient in tokamak operation, in particular to access improved confinement regimes where the safety factor (q) profile plays a major role in determining plasma confinement and stability. This paper shows how physics models of profile transport can be used for improved plasma profile control methods. We show two distinct applications. In...
