Quantitative 3D non-linear simulations of shattered pellet injection in ASDEX Upgrade using JOREK
W. Tang, M. Hoelzl, P. Heinrich +16
Shattered pellet injection (SPI) as primary mitigation method for major disruptions in ITER has a large parameter space available for optimization including the total amount of inj…
Non-linear MHD modelling of shattered pellet injection in ASDEX Upgrade
W. Tang, M. Hoelzl, M. Lehnen +11
Shattered pellet injection (SPI) is selected for the disruption mitigation system in ITER, due to deeper penetration, expected assimilation efficiency and prompt material delivery.…
Reduced kinetic modelling of shattered pellet injection in ASDEX Upgrade
Peter Halldestam, Paul Heinrich, Gergely Papp +8
Plasma-terminating disruptions represent a critical outstanding issue for reactor-relevant tokamaks. ITER will use shattered pellet injection (SPI) as its disruption mitigation sys…
Expulsion of runaway electrons using ECRH in the TCV tokamak
J. Decker, M. Hoppe, U. Sheikh +19
Runaway electrons (REs) are a concern for tokamak fusion reactors from discharge startup to termination. A sudden localized loss of a multi-megaampere RE beam can inflict severe da…
