  1. 6. Radially global neoclassical transport in tokamak pedestals

    Författare :Stefan Buller; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tokamak; transport; global effects; collisional transport; fusion; drift-kinetics; plasma physics;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear fusion has the potential to become a sustainable energy sourcein the foreseeable future. The most developed system for fusion powerproduction is the tokamak, which magnetically confines a plasma at highenough temperature for fusion reactions to take place. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Turbulent and neoclassical transport in tokamak plasmas

    Författare :Istvan Pusztai; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermonuclear fusion; tokamaks; microinstabilities; transport analysis; isotope effect; impurity transport; neoclassical transport; transport barriers; turbulent transport;

    Sammanfattning : One of the greatest challenges of thermonuclear fusion is to understand, predict and to some extent control particle and energy transport in fusion plasmas. In the present thesis we consider theoretical and experimental aspects of collisional and turbulent transport in tokamak plasmas. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Modelling Ion Cyclotron Resonance Heating and Fast Wave Current Drive in Tokamaks

    Författare :Abdul Hannan; Torbjörn Hellsten; Dirk van Eester; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermonuclear fusion; Tokamak; DIII-D; JET; ITER; DEMO; ICRF; ICRH; Fast magnetosonic waves; TTMP; ELD; ICRH; Thermonuclear;

    Sammanfattning : Fast magnetosonic waves in the ion cyclotron range of frequencies have the potential to heat plasma and drive current in a thermonuclear fusion reactor. A code, SELFO-light, has been developed to study the physics of ion cyclotron resonantheating and current drive in thermonuclear fusion reactors. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Disruption Mitigation in Tokamaks with Massive Material Injection

    Författare :Oskar Vallhagen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; shattered pellet injection; fusion plasma; disruption mitigation; runaway electron;

    Sammanfattning : The sudden loss of confinement of the energy content of fusion plasmas in off-normal events, called disruptions, is among the most severe threats to the future of fusion energy based on the tokamak design. An efficient disruption mitigation system will therefore be of utmost importance for future large, high-current devices such as ITER. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Pressure driven instabilities in the reversed-field pinch : numerical and theoretical studies

    Författare :Ahmed Akram Mirza; Jan Scheffel; Roberto Paccagnella; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fusion plasma; thermonuclear; Reversed-field pinch; resistive MHD; resistive g modes; thermal conduction; the boundary value theory;

    Sammanfattning : According to classical linearized resistive magnetohydrodynamics theory, pressuredriven modes are unstable in the reversed-field pinch (RFP) due to unfavorable magnetic field line curvature. The result is based on the assumption of an adiabatic energy equation where anisotropic thermal conduction effects are ignored as compared to convection and compression. LÄS MER
