How to calculate the neoclassical viscosity, diffusion, and current coefficients in general toroidal plasmas [PDF]

open access: yesHow to calculate the neoclassical viscosity, diffusion, and current coefficients in general toroidal plasmas
A novel method to obtain the full neoclassical transport matrix for general toroidal plasmas by using the solution of the linearized drift kinetic equation with the pitch-angle-scattering collision operator is shown. In this method, the neoclassical coefficients for both poloidal and toroidal viscosities in toroidal helical systems can be obtained, and

Calculation of Neoclassical Toroidal Viscosity with a Particle Simulation in the Tokamak Magnetic Breaking Experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Accurate calculation of perturbed distribution function #14;δf and perturbed magnetic fi eld #14;δB is essential to achieve prediction of non-ambipolar transport and neoclassical toroidal viscosity (NTV) in perturbed tokamaks.

Kinetic Energy Principle And Neoclassical Toroidal Torque In Tokamaks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It is shown that when tokamaks are perturbed the kinetic energy principle is closely related to the neoclassical toroidal torque by the action invariance of particles.

Experimental Investigations of Magnetohydrodynamic Plasma Jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis primarily focuses on understanding the plasma behavior during the helicity injection stage of a pulsed spheromak experiment. Spheromak formation consists of a series of dynamic steps whereby highly localized plasma near the electrodes evolves

MARS-Q modeling of low-n resistive kink-peeling modes and edge harmonic oscillations in DIII-D

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Linear and quasilinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modeling is carried out for two DIII-D discharges that both featured a transition from quiescent H-mode (QH) to wide-pedestal QH (WPQH).

New insights into error field assessment from mode coupling effects based on RMP spectrum scanning experiments in EAST

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Numerical simulations concerning the spectrum of resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) on field penetration threshold in EAST are presented, since the underlying physics is not well understood by the linear response model.

Modeling and control of plasma rotation for NSTX using neoclassical toroidal viscosity and neutral beam injection

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2016
Abstract A model-based feedback system is presented to control plasma rotation in a magnetically confined toroidal fusion device, to maintain plasma stability for long-pulse operation. This research uses experimental measurements from the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) and is aimed at controlling plasma rotation using two ...
