First step toward multi machine ELM energy scalings and extrapolations to SPARC and ITER
R. Perillo, A. Redl, T. Eich +14
It is shown that the ELM energy loss normalized by the plasma stored energy (ΔEELM/Wplasma) for high-density small/QCE ELM regimes scales inversely with the separatrix turbulence p…
Non-dimensional confinement scaling in similar negative triangularity plasmas on the DIII-D and TCV tokamaks
A. Marinoni, C. Chrystal, S. Coda +25
Similarity experiments were performed on the DIII-D and TCV tokamaks to explore the scaling of energy confinement in negative triangularity plasmas using non-dimensional variables.…
Turbulent Transport-Limited Pedestals in Tokamaks
J. F. Parisi, D. R. Hatch, P. Y. Li +5
H-mode operation of tokamak fusion plasmas free of dangerous Type 1 edge-localized-modes (ELMs) requires a non-ELM mechanism for saturating the edge pedestal growth. One possible m…
Prediction of ELM-free Operation in Spherical Tokamaks With High Plasma Squareness
J. F. Parisi, J. W. Berkery, K. Imada +5
We predict that high plasma squareness in spherical tokamaks (STs) could result in edge-localized-mode (ELM)-free H-mode. The effect of squareness on gyrokinetic and peeling-balloo…
Doubling Fusion Power with Volumetric Optimization in Magnetic Confinement Fusion Devices
J. F. Parisi, J. W. Berkery, A. Sladkomedova +17
A technique, volumetric power optimization, is presented for enhancing the power output of magnetic confinement fusion devices. Applied to a tokamak, this approach involves shiftin…
