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,…
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…
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…
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…
