Rock-Flow Cell Parameters Evaluation Using Ultrasound Doppler Velocimetry

Giovanni De Cesare

This work presents a study of two-phase flow generated inside a rock-flow cell setup. It is characterized by a pipe section filled with fluid (oil in our studies) that is put into oscillation around its mass centre by an electric motor. This type of appara ...

Gyrokinetic simulation of low-n Alfvenic modes in tokamak HL-2A plasmas

Javier García Hernández, Samuele Mazzi

The turbulence characteristics of plasmas with internal transport barriers in the HL-2A tokamak are analyzed by means of linear gyrokinetic simulations. It is found that turbulence is dominated by the ion temperature gradient (ITG) mode together with large ...

Full-discharge simulation and optimization with the RAPTOR code, from present tokamaks to ITER and DEMO

Simon Van Mulders

Tokamak devices aim to magnetically confine a hydrogen plasma at sufficiently high pressure to achieve net energy production from nuclear fusion of light isotopes. Predictive modeling and optimization is crucial for reliable operation of tokamak reactors, ...

Turbulent transport regimes in the tokamak boundary

Maurizio Giacomin

The overall performance of a tokamak strongly depends on phenomena that take place in a thin region between the main plasma and the vessel wall, which is denoted as tokamak boundary. In fact, the formation of transport barriers in this region can significa ...

Analysis and modelling of momentum transport based on NBI modulation experiments at ASDEX Upgrade

Basil Duval, Emiliano Fable

The prediction of plasma rotation is of high interest for fusion research due to the effects of the rotation upon magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities, impurities, and turbulent transport in general. In this work, an analysis method was studied and vali ...

Turbulent transport regimes in the tokamak boundary and operational limits

Paolo Ricci, Maurizio Giacomin

Two-fluid, three-dimensional, flux-driven, global, electromagnetic turbulence simulations carried out by using the GBS (Global Braginskii Solver) code are used to identify the main parameters controlling turbulent transport in the tokamak boundary and to d ...

Gas puff imaging on the TCV tokamak

Basil Duval, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Robert Bertizzolo, Jean-Daniel Landis, Yanis Andrebe, Cristian Galperti, Olivier Claude Martin Février, Curdin Tobias Wüthrich, Nicola Offeddu, Arnaud Clément, Hammam Elaian

We present the design and operation of a suite of Gas Puff Imaging (GPI) diagnostic systems installed on the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) for the study of turbulence in the plasma edge and Scrape-Off-Layer (SOL). These systems provide the unique ...

On the Capability of Wall-Modeled Large Eddy Simulations to Predict Particle Dispersion in Complex Turbulent Flows

Mohamed Aly Hashem Mohamed Sayed

Predicting particle transport in turbulent flows has a plethora of applications, some of which are: the transport of atmospheric aerosols, the deposition of blood cells in the arteries of human bodies and the atomization of fuel droplets in combustion cham ...

Model order reduction for bifurcating phenomena in fluid-structure interaction problems

Federico Pichi

This work explores the development and the analysis of an efficient reduced order model for the study of a bifurcating phenomenon, known as the Coanda effect, in a multi-physics setting involving fluid and solid media. Taking into consideration a fluid-str ...

Global fluid simulation of plasma turbulence in a stellarator with an island divertor

Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Maurizio Giacomin, António João Caeiro Heitor Coelho

Results of a three-dimensional, flux-driven, electrostatic, global, two-fluid turbulence simulation for a five-field period stellarator with an island divertor are presented. The numerical simulation is carried out with the GBS code, recently extended to s ...
