Physics of Electron Internal Transport Barrier in Toroidal Helical Plasmas
The role of zonal flows in the formation of the transport barrier in the helical plasmas is analyzed using the transport code. A set of one-dimensional transport equations is analyzed, including the effect of zonal flows. The turbulent transport coefficient is shown to be suppressed when the plasma state changes from the weak negative radial electric field to the strong positive one. This bifur...
متن کاملMagnetohydrodynamic Equilibrium with Flow in Toroidal Plasmas and its Relevance to Internal Transport Barriers
The appearance of transport barriers in plasmas is usually taken to be the result of bifurcations in the transport equations, in which the possible control parameters is the radial electric field, in association with shear flow, which may contribute to the reduction or suppression of turbulent fluctuations. Yet, most calculations start from the assumption of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibira...
متن کاملDensity limits in toroidal plasmas
In addition to the operational limits imposed by MHD stability on plasma current and pressure, an independent limit on plasma density is observed in confined toroidal plasmas. This review attempts to summarize recent work on the phenomenology and physics of the density limit. Perhaps the most surprising result is that all of the toroidal confinement devices considered operate in similar ranges ...
متن کاملTokamak equilibria with non-parallel flow in a triangularity-deformed axisymmetric toroidal coordinate system
We consider a generalized Grad-Shafranov equation (GGSE) in a triangularity-deformed axisymmetric toroidal coordinate system and solve it numerically for the generic case of ITER-like and JET-like equilibria with non-parallel flow. It turns out that increase of the triangularity improves confinement by leading to larger values of the toroidal beta and the safety factor. This result is supported...
متن کاملNeoclassical Transport in Enhanced Confinement Toroidal Plasmas
It has recently been reported that ion thermal transport levels in enhanced confinement tokamak plasmas have been observed to fall below the "irreducible minimum level" predicted by standard neoclassical theory. This apparent contradiction is resolved in the present analysis by relaxing the basic neoclassical assumption that the ions orbital excursions are much smaller than the local toroidal m...
