Systematic extraction of a control-oriented model from perturbative experiments and SOLPS-ITER for emission front control in TCV

Olivier Claude Martin Février, Artur Perek, Mirko Wensing

Systematic extraction of locally valid dynamic models from experiments is necessary for controller design and the validation of high fidelity models. This paper describes the extraction of a dynamic model in the form of a transfer function, giving the dyna ...

Benchmark of a self-consistent dynamic 1D divertor model DIV1D using the 2D SOLPS-ITER code

Holger Reimerdes, Mirko Wensing

This paper presents DIV1D, a new 1D dynamic physics-based model of the divertor plasma under development to study and control the dynamics of detached plasmas. An innovative feature of DIV1D is that it mimics cross-field transport using an effective flux e ...

SOLPS-ITER validation with TCV L-mode discharges

Basil Duval, Patrick Blanchard, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Marco Wischmeier, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Artur Perek, Hugo De Oliveira, Filippo Bagnato, Lorenzo Martinelli, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea

This work presents a quantitative test of SOLPS-ITER simulations against tokamak a configuration variable (TCV) L-mode experiments. These simulations account for drifts, currents, kinetic neutrals, and carbon impurities providing the most complete edge tra ...

Initial TCV operation with a baffled divertor

Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Davide Galassi, Holger Reimerdes, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Matthieu Toussaint, Roberto Maurizio, Mirko Wensing, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Artur Perek, Hugo De Oliveira, Filippo Bagnato, Lorenzo Martinelli, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Harshita Raj

The Tokamak à Configuration Variable (TCV) tokamak is in the midst of an upgrade to further its capability to investigate conventional and alternative divertor configurations. To that end, modular and removable gas baffles have been installed to decrease t ...

The role of plasma-molecule interactions on power and particle balance during detachment on the TCV tokamak

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing, Artur Perek

This paper shows experimental results from the TCV tokamak that indicate plasma-molecule interactions involving D2+

Preliminary analysis of alternative divertors for DEMO

Paolo Ricci, Holger Reimerdes, Marco Wischmeier, Fabio Riva, Mirko Wensing

A physics and engineering analysis of alternative divertor configurations is carried out by examining benefits and problems by comparing the baseline single null solution with a Snowflake, an X- and a Super-X divertor. It is observed that alternative confi ...

Identification of the primary processes that lead to the drop in divertor target ion current at detachment in TCV

Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Mirko Wensing

Using SOLPS-ITER, we model a TCV conventional divertor discharge density ramp to understand the role of various processes in the loss of target ion current. We find that recombination is not a strong contributor to the rollover of the target ion current at ...

Evidence on the effects of main-chamber neutrals on density shoulder broadening

Basil Duval, Nicola Vianello, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Umar Sheikh, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Mirko Wensing, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Artur Perek, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno

Evidence that density shoulder broadening is dependent on high main-chamber neutral density is presented. Shoulder broadening does notoccur when the sources for main-chamber neutrals are minimized using divertor baffles and wide gaps to the first wall (sim ...
