Calibration of cross-field transport models in SOLPS-ITER on the TCV-X21 case
Stefano Carli, Reinart Coosemans, Claudia Colandrea +1
Cross-field turbulent transport remains one of the largest uncertainties in edge plasma simulations and is commonly approximated through empirical transport coefficients. In this w…
An upper pressure limit for low-Z benign termination of runaway electron beams in TCV
M Hoppe, J Decker, U Sheikh +17
We present a model for the particle balance in the post-disruption runaway electron plateau phase of a tokamak discharge. The model is constructed with the help of, and applied to,…
Investigating the influence of divertor baffles on nitrogen-seeded detachment in TCV with SOLPS-ITER simulations and TCV experiments
G. Sun, H. Reimerdes, C. Theiler +8
Plasma edge simulations with the SOLPS-ITER code are performed to study the influence of divertor baffles on nitrogen-seeded detachment in TCV single-null, L-mode discharges. Scans…
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…
Performance assessment of a tightly baffled, long-legged divertor configuration in TCV with SOLPS-ITER
G. Sun, H. Reimerdes, C. Theiler +5
Numerical simulations explore the possibility to test the tightly baffled, long-legged divertor (TBLLD) concept in a future upgrade of the Tokamak à configuration variable (TCV). T…
Power exhaust and core-divertor compatibility of the baffled snowflake divertor in TCV
Sophie Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Olivier Février +8
A baffled Snowflake Minus Low-Field Side (SF-LFS) is geometrically-optimised in TCV, increasing divertor neutral pressure, to evaluate the roles of divertor closure (comparing with…
Improved Heat and Particle Flux Mitigation in High Core Confinement, Baffled, Alternate Divertor Configurations in the TCV tokamak
Harshita Raj, C. Theiler, A. Thornton +13
Nitrogen seeded detachment has been achieved in the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) in advanced divertor configurations (ADCs), namely X-divertor and X-point target, with an…
Validation of edge turbulence codes against the TCV-X21 diverted L-mode reference case
D. S. Oliveira, T. Body, D. Galassi +27
Self-consistent full-size turbulent-transport simulations of the divertor and SOL of existing tokamaks have recently become feasible. This enables the direct comparison of turbulen…
