Closure of the single fluid magnetohydrodynamic equations in presence of electron cyclotron current drive [PDF]

open access: diamondEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
In the presence of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD), the Ohm’s law of single fluid magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is modified as E + v × B = η(J – JECCD).

Closure of the single fluid magnetohydrodynamic equations in presence of electron cyclotron current drive [PDF]

open access: greenPhysics of Plasmas, 2014
In the presence of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD), the Ohm's law of single fluid magnetohydrodynamics is modified as E + v × B = η(J – JEC). This paper presents a new closure relation for the EC driven current density appearing in this modified Ohm's law.

The Phase Modulating Micro-Mover Based on the MHD/MET System in the Reference Arm of the Scanning Interferometer [PDF]

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
The possibility of using a magnetohydrodynamic drive (MHD) and amolecular-electronic transfer (MET) sensor as a single device for moving and precise control of the displacement of a movable mirror, which is part of a scanning interferometer, is ...

On the stabilization of neoclassical magnetohydrodynamic tearing modes using localized current drive or heating [PDF]

open access: bronzePhysics of Plasmas, 1997
The effectiveness of using localized current drive or heating to suppress the formation and growth of neoclassical magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) tearing modes is addressed. The most efficient way to use an auxiliary current source is to cause current to flow in the same direction as the equilibrium bootstrap current and phase the current relative to the ...

Magnetohydrodynamic simulations of direct current helicity injection for current drive in tokamaks [PDF]

open access: bronzePhysics of Plasmas, 1996
Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) computations of direct current (DC) helicity injection for tokamak-like configurations show current drive with no ‘‘loop voltage’’ in a resistive, pressureless plasma. Self-consistently induced, hollow current profiles are unstable to resistive modes that partially relax the profile through the MHD dynamo mechanism.

Nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic modeling of current-drive-induced sawtooth-like crashes in the W7-X stellarator

open access: greenPhysics of Plasmas, 2023
Sawtooth-like core electron temperature crashes have been observed in W7-X experiments with electron cyclotron current drive. We present nonlinear single-fluid magnetohydrodynamic simulations of this phenomenon using the newly developed stellarator modeling capability of the M3D-C1 code. The near-axis current drive gives rise to two ι = 1 resonances in

Ion-Injected MagnetoHydroDynamic Duct Drive (IIMHD-Drive): Extended Theoretical Framework (Version 2.0)

open access: green
This Version 2.1 release extends the theoretical IIMHD-Drive framework by adding supplementary simulation material. In addition to the main Version 2.0 PDF, this update includes: • a simple 1D Python toy-model (iimhd_simulation.py) illustrating velocity growth inside the MHD duct based on the analytical relations of the paper, • a README explaining ...

Effects of the resonance modification by electron cyclotron current drive on the linear and nonlinear dynamics of energetic particle driven magnetohydrodynamics modes in Heliotron J [PDF]

open access: diamondNuclear Fusion, 2023
Abstract This study investigates the effects of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) on the linear and nonlinear dynamics of energetic-particle (EP)-driven magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) instability (mode) in Heliotron J (HJ), using MEGA, a nonlinear hybrid EP-MHD simulation code.

Plasma pressure response to non-inductive current drive in axisymmetric visco-resistive magnetohydrodynamic steady states [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Plasma Physics
We investigate self-consistent, steady-state axisymmetric solutions of an incompressible tokamak plasma using a visco-resistive magnetohydrodynamic model. A key contribution of this work is the formulation of Poisson’s equation that governs the pressure profile. Our analysis reveals that the current modelling fails to produce realistic pressure levels.

A Miniature Direct-Drive Hydraulic Actuator for Wearable Haptic Devices based on Ferrofluid Magnetohydrodynamic Levitation

open access: green2023 IEEE World Haptics Conference (WHC), 2023
Hydraulic and pneumatic actuators in haptics offer the advantage of soft and compliant interfaces, with the drawback of cumbersome driving devices and limited modulation capabilities. We propose a miniature hydraulic actuator based on a linear electromagnetic motor with an embedded ferrofluid sealing.
