The ASDEX Upgrade discharge schedule [PDF]

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2007
Abstract ASDEX Upgrade's recently commissioned discharge control system (DCS) marks the transition from a traditional programmed system to a highly flexible “data driven” one. The allocation of application processes (APs) to controllers, the interconnection of APs through uniquely named signals, and AP control parameter values are all defined as data,

Effect of magnetic perturbation fields on power decay length in EMC3-EIRENE simulations and comparison to experiment in ASDEX upgrade

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Previous simulation results for the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade have shown that Magnetic Perturbation (MP) fields could lead to a decrease of the peak heat flux onto the divertor targets. However, experimentally, such a decrease has not been observed.

Induced microwave scattering in the ITER edge transport barrier at ECRH and possibility of its modeling at ASDEX-Upgrade [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
The induced scattering parametric decay instability of O-mode polarized microwaves leading to excitation of lower hybrid or electron plasma waves localized within a tokamak edge transport barrier is investigated.

Pellet-fueled I-mode plasmas in ASDEX Upgrade

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
This letter reports on the efforts carried out at the ASDEX Upgrade tokamak to integrate I-mode plasmas with pellet fueling and to increase the I-mode Greenwald fraction $f_{\mathrm{GW}}$ , two important requirements for any DEMO operational scenario ...

Experimental evidence of magnetic flux pumping in ASDEX upgrade

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
In high- β scenarios with on-axis co-current electron cyclotron current drive, which normally lowers q _0 below unity, the absence of sawteeth suggests the involvement of an additional current redistribution mechanism beyond neoclassical current ...

Surface features of strongly heated bulk tungsten divertor plates at ASDEX Upgrade

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2023
Solid tungsten tiles exposed at the outer strike point module of the ASDEX Upgrade divertor show cracks parallel to surface in the bulk and humps at the surface. At ASDEX Upgrade these horizontal cracks were observed for the first time. About 10 % of all

Safety Analysis in Large Volume Vacuum Systems Like Tokamak: Experiments and Numerical Simulation to Analyze Vacuum Ruptures Consequences

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The large volume vacuum systems are used in many industrial operations and research laboratories. Accidents in these systems should have a relevant economical and safety impact. A loss of vacuum accident (LOVA) due to a failure of the main vacuum vessel can result in a fast pressurization of the vessel and consequent mobilization dispersion of ...

Feedback-controlled NTM stabilization on ASDEX Upgrade

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
On ASDEX Upgrade a concept for real-time stabilization of NTMs has been realized and successfully applied to (3,2)- and (2,1)-NTMs. Since most of the work has meanwhile been published elsewhere, a short summary with the appropriate references is given ...

The compact neutron spectrometer at ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2011
The first neutron spectrometer of ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) was installed in November 2008. It is a compact neutron spectrometer (CNS) based on a BC501A liquid scintillating detector, which can simultaneously measure 2.45-MeV and 14-MeV neutrons emitted from deuterium (D) plasmas and γ radiation. The scintillating detector is coupled to a digital pulse shape

Tungsten experiences in ASDEX Upgrade and JET [PDF]

2013 IEEE 25th Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE), 2013
ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) has been converted to all W plasma facing components (PFCs) in 2007 and JET has implemented the ITER like wall (ILW) project (2011) using the same PFC configuration as ITER during its active phase, namely Be in the main chamber and tungsten in the divertor.
