Evolution of SPI-induced disruptions in ASDEX Upgrade
P. Heinrich, G. Papp, S. Jachmich +23
Disruptions are a major concern for future fusion reactors based on the tokamak principle. To ensure machine protection, the thermal loads and vessel forces that arise during disru…
Runaway electron avalanche and macroscopic beam formation: simulations of the DTT full power scenario
E. Emanuelli, F. Vannini, M. Hoelzl +7
The transition of the Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) facility from its initial commissioning phase (Day-0, plasma current MA) to the full power scenario ( MA) int…
Radiated energy fraction of SPI-induced disruptions at ASDEX Upgrade
Paul Heinrich, Gergely Papp, Stefan Jachmich +15
Future large tokamaks will operate at high plasma currents and high stored plasma energies. To ensure machine protection in case of a sudden loss of plasma confinement (major disru…
Implementation of matrix compression in the coupling of JOREK to realistic 3D conducting wall structures
Federico Cipolletta, Nina Schwarz, Matthias Hoelzl +6
JOREK is an advanced non-linear simulation code for studying MHD instabilities in magnetically confined fusion plasmas and their control and/or mitigation. A free-boundary and resi…
Runaway electron beam formation, vertical motion, termination and wall loads in EU-DEMO
F. Vannini, V. Bandaru, H. Bergstroem +9
Runaway electron loads onto material structures are a major concern for future large tokamaks due to the efficient avalanching at high plasma currents. Here, we perform predictive…
