High-power TCV scenario for conventional and alternative divertor studies

K. Lee, C. Theiler, M. Carpita +20

Alternative divertor configurations (ADCs) must be evaluated under boundary plasma conditions approaching reactor-level values to be considered a reliable, physics-based solution f…

Kinetic Equilibrium Prediction at TCV using RAPTOR and FBT

C. E. Contré, A. Merle, O. Sauter +13

We present results from a new Kinetic-Equilibrium Prediction (KEP) workflow and shot preparation for full TCV discharges, by coupling predict-first RAPTOR transport simulations wit…

Impact of triangularity on edge transport and divertor detachment: a SOLPS-ITER study of TCV L-mode plasmas

Fabio Mombelli, Andrea Mastrogirolamo, Elena Tonello +7

Negative triangularity (NT) magnetic configurations have recently gained attention as a promising route to achieve H-mode-like confinement without edge-localized modes (ELMs) and w…

Predictive power-sharing scaling law in double-null L-mode plasmas

K. Lim, P. Ricci, L. Stenger +5

The physical mechanisms regulating the power sharing at the outer targets of L-mode double-null (DN) configurations are investigated using nonlinear, flux-driven, three-dimensional…

Modelling of power exhaust in TCV positive and negative triangularity L-mode plasmas

E. Tonello, F. Mombelli, O. Février +10

L-mode negative triangularity (NT) operation is a promising alternative to the positive triangularity (PT) H-mode as a high-confinement ELM-free operational regime. In this work, t…

Comparison of detachment in Ohmic plasmas with positive and negative triangularity

O. Février, C. K. Tsui, G. Durr-Legoupil-Nicoud +18

In recent years, negative triangularity (NT) has emerged as a potential high-confinement L-mode reactor solution. In this work, detachment is investigated using core density ramps…

Parallel flows as a key component to interpret Super-X divertor experiments

M. Carpita, O. Février, H. Reimerdes +15

The Super-X Divertor (SXD) is an alternative divertor configuration leveraging total flux expansion at the Outer Strike Point (OSP). While the extended 2-Point Model (2PM) predicts…
