Impurity-driven turbulence opens a pathway to ELM-free operation and enhanced pedestal stability in tokamaks
Santanu Banerjee, T. Macwan, A. Bortolon +7
Edge-localized modes (ELMs) impose severe transient heat, and particle loads on plasma-facing components, posing a critical challenge for steady-state operation of tokamak fusion r…
Integrated modeling of boron powder injection for real-time plasma-facing component conditioning
Florian Effenberg, Klaus Schmid, Federico Nespoli +6
An integrated modeling framework for investigating the application of solid boron powder injection for real-time surface conditioning of plasma-facing components in tokamak environ…
Mitigation of plasma-wall interactions with low-Z powders in DIII-D high confinement plasmas
Florian Effenberg, Alessandro Bortolon, Livia Casali +11
Experiments with low-Z powder injection in DIII-D high confinement discharges demonstrated increased divertor dissipation and detachment while maintaining good core energy confinem…
Hollow pellet injection for magnetic fusion
Zhehui Wang, M. A. Hoffbauer, E. M. Hollmann +7
Precise delivery of mass to burning plasmas is a problem of growing interest in magnetic fusion. The answers to how much mass is necessary and sufficient can vary depending on para…
Total Fluid Pressure Imbalance in the Scrape-Off Layer of Tokamak Plasmas
R. M. Churchill, J. M. Canik, C. S. Chang +5
Simulations using the fully kinetic neoclassical code XGCa were undertaken to explore the impact of kinetic effects on scrape-off layer (SOL) physics in DIII-D H-mode plasmas. XGCa…
Gyrokinetic projection of the divertor heat-flux width from present tokamaks to ITER
C. S. Chang, S. Ku, A. Loarte +11
The XGC1 edge gyrokinetic code is used for a high fidelity prediction for the width of the heat-flux to divertor plates in attached plasma condition. The simulation results are val…
Stabilizing effects of resistivity on low-n edge localized modes in NSTX
Debabrata Banerjee, Ping Zhu, Rajesh Maingi
The stabilizing effects of enhanced edge resistivity on the low-n edge localized modes (ELMs) are reported for the first time in the context of ELM suppression in H-mode discharge…
High flux expansion divertor studies in NSTX
V. A. Soukhanovskii, R. Maingi, R. E. Bell +10
High flux expansion divertor studies have been carried out in the National Spherical Torus Experiment using steady-state X-point height variations from 22 to 5-6 cm. Small-ELM H-mo…
