Trace Impurity Transport in Multi-Species Plasmas with Large Particle Fluxes
E. Litvinova Mitra, E. J. Kolmes, I. E. Ochs +3
A burning fusion plasma has a large inwards flux of fuel and outwards flux of ash. Existing impurity transport theories do not account for a steady-state environment of such large…
Recovering Gardner Restacking with Purely Diffusive Operations
E. J. Kolmes, N. J. Fisch
The maximum particle kinetic energy that can be extracted from an initial six-dimensional phase space distribution motivates the concept of free or available energy. The free energ…
Heat Pump via Charge Incompressibility in a Collisional Magnetized Multi-Ion Plasma
M. E. Mlodik, E. J. Kolmes, I. E. Ochs +1
Stratification due to ion-ion friction in a magnetized multiple-ion species plasma is shown to be accompanied by a heat pump effect, identified for the first time here, transferrin…
Available Energy from Diffusive and Reversible Phase Space Rearrangements
E. J. Kolmes, P. Helander, N. J. Fisch
Rearranging the six-dimensional phase space of particles in plasma can release energy. The rearrangement may happen through the application of electric and magnetic fields, subject…
MITNS: Multiple-Ion Transport Numerical Solver for Magnetized Plasmas
E. J. Kolmes, I. E. Ochs, N. J. Fisch
MITNS (Multiple-Ion Transport Numerical Solver) is a new numerical tool designed to perform 1D simulations of classical cross-field transport in magnetized plasmas. Its detailed tr…
