Comparisons and physics basis of tokamak transport models and turbulence simulations

open access: yes, 2000
The predictions of gyrokinetic and gyrofluid simulations of ion-temperature-gradient (ITG) instability and turbulence in tokamak plasmas as well as some tokamak plasma thermal transport models, which have been widely used for predicting the performance ...

Currents in a Tokamak

open access: yes, 2008
A self-consistent analysis of the currents in a tokamak yields the result that the parallel neutralizing current is given simply by the sum of currents commonly called the bootstrap current and the Pfirsch-Schlueter current. An expression is given relating the parallel and perpendicular pressure gradient induced species flow velocities to the total ...

The physics of an ignited tokamak [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 1991
A next step device which can demonstrate long burn with a high probability of success is possible, without speculating on the accumulation of favorable effects and ignoring the other ones. From the data base available today this appears possible only with large devices such as NET, ITER or JIT.

Study of an improved single neuron PID control algorithm in the Tokamak plasma density control system

open access: yesMeasurement + Control
Tokamak is an important device for controlled nuclear fusion research. The plasma electronic density control system (PEDCS) is an important system for controlling the Tokamak discharge process, which should be of high stability, rapidity, and accuracy ...

Impact of blanket material and configuration on the size of a tokamak fusion reactor

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2021
On the basis of the Korean fusion roadmap, conceptual design of the DEMO and R&D on the breeding blanket are ongoing. This article addresses the impact of blanket material and configuration on the tritium breeding, shielding characteristics, and ...

Tungsten melting and erosion under plasma heat load in tokamak discharges with disruptions

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
Full tungsten poloidal and mushroom limiters were tested in series of experiments with disruptions in the T-10 tokamak. Significant melting, formation of small craters and erosion of the tungsten limiter have been observed after ∼400 discharges with ...

Mechanical model for a full fusion tokamak enabled by supercomputing

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Determining stress and strain in a component of a fusion power plant involves defining boundary conditions for the mechanical equilibrium equations, which implies the availability of a full reactor model for defining those conditions.

First dedicated observations of runaway electrons in the COMPASS tokamak

open access: yesNukleonika, 2015
Runaway electrons present an important part of the present efforts in nuclear fusion research with respect to the potential damage of the in-vessel components.
