Global gyrokinetic particle simulations with kinetic electrons
A toroidal, nonlinear, electrostatic fluid-kinetic hybrid electron model is formulated for global gyrokinetic particle simulations of driftwave turbulence in fusion plasmas. Numerical properties are improved by an expansion of the electron response using a smallness parameter of the ratio of driftwave frequency to electron transit frequency. Linear simulations accurately recover the real freque...
متن کاملAvalanchelike bursts in global gyrokinetic simulations
Highly variable flux surface averaged heat fluxes are resolved in gyrokinetic simulations of ion temperature gradient ITG turbulence, even in large systems. Radially propagating fronts or avalanches are also seen. Their propagation lengths in gyroradii and relative amplitude remain constant as simulation size is increased, so the avalanches appear to result from local dynamics, rather than glob...
متن کاملGlobal gyrokinetic simulations of TEM microturbulence
Global gyrokinetic simulations of electrostatic temperature-gradient-driven trapped-electron-mode (TEM) turbulence using the δf particle-in-cell code ORB5 are presented. The electron response is either fully kinetic or hybrid, i.e. considering kinetic trapped and adiabatic passing electrons. A linear benchmark in the TEM regime against the Eulerian-based code GENE is presented. Two different me...
متن کاملParallel filtering in global gyrokinetic simulations
In this work, a Fourier solver [McMillan et. al., Comput. Phys. Commun. 181, 715 (2010)] is implemented in the global Eulerian gyrokinetic code GT5D [Y. Idomura et. al., Nucl. Fusion 49, 065029, 2009] and in the global Particle-In-Cell code ORB5 [S. Jolliet et. al., Comput. Phys. Commun 177, 477 (2007)] in order to reduce the memory of the matrix associated with the field equation. This scheme ...
متن کاملGyrokinetic Simulations of Tokamak Micro-Turbulence Including Kinetic Electron Effects
A gyrokinetic toroidal particle code for a 3-dimensional nonlinear turbulence simulation (GT3D) has been developed to study the ion temperature gradient driven – trapped electron mode (ITG-TEM) turbulence in tokamak plasmas. From linear zonal flow damping tests and nonlinear ITG simulations, it is shown that a new method based on a canonical Maxwellian distribution is essential to simulate corr...
