Abstract This paper is dealing with the physics basis used for design of Divertor Tokamak Test facility (DTT), under construction in Frascati (DTT 2019 DTT interim report (2019)) Italy, and description main target plasma scenarios device. The goal will be study power exhaust, intended as a fully integrated core-edge problem, eventually to propose an optimized divertor European DEMO plant. approach described their features are reported, by using simulations performed state-of-the-art codes...
Abstract The properties and possible triggering mechanisms of Alfvén waves in the reversed-field pinch (RFP) circular tokamak configurations are discussed framework nonlinear 3D magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) modeling. Numerical simulations performed with SpeCyl code (Cappello Biskamp 1996 Nucl. Fusion ) that solves equations viscoresistive MHD model cylindrical geometry. Configurations increasing levels complexity analyzed. First, single-wave numerical solutions compared analytical ones...
Abstract A possible triggering mechanism of Alfvén waves (AWs) in tokamak plasmas, based on localized perturbations induced by magnetic reconnection events, is discussed the framework nonlinear viscoresistive 3D magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) modeling. Numerical simulations are performed with SpeCyl code (Cappello and Biskamp 1996 Nucl. Fusion 36 571) that solves equations MHD model cylindrical geometry. We investigate a ohmic configuration where m = 1, n 1 internal kink mode ( poloidal number...
