Divertor shaping with neutral baffling as a solution to the tokamak power exhaust challenge
K. Verhaegh, J. R. Harrison, D. Moulton +20
Exhausting power from the hot fusion core to the plasma-facing components is one of the biggest challenges in fusion energy. The MAST Upgrade tokamak uniquely integrates strong con…
Investigations of atomic \& molecular processes of NBI-heated discharges in the MAST Upgrade Super-X divertor with implications for reactors
K. Verhaegh, J. R. Harrison, B. Lipschultz +20
This experimental study presents an in-depth investigation of the performance of the MAST-U Super-X divertor during NBI-heated operation (up to 2.5 MW) focussing on volumetric ion…
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…
