This paper documents the public release PR08 of International Tokamak Physics Activity (ITPA) profile database, which should be particular interest to magnetic confinement fusion community. Data from a wide variety interesting discharges many world's leading tokamak experiments are now made available in PR08, also includes predictive simulations an initial set operating scenarios for ITER. In this we describe that have been included and tools reader who is interested accessing working with...
Two-dimensional (2D) spatial profile and the temporal evolution of 14 2.5 MeV neutron emissivities from D–D D–T fusion reactions were studied using measurements upgraded monitor during last trace tritium experiments in JET. The JET provides unique capability for neutrons line-integrated simultaneously. A systematic comparison emissivity was performed. concentration or fuel ratio (nT/nD) analysed a set 34 ELMy-H mode discharges with puff. Tritium is deduced method based on order to exploit...
A series of experiments have been carried out in 2008 at JT-60U and JET to find common characteristics explain differences between internal transport barriers (ITBs). The identity succeeded matching the profiles most dimensionless parameters time ITBs were triggered. Thereafter q-profile development deviated due non-inductive current density profile, affecting ITB. Furthermore, more strongly influenced by H-mode pedestal or edge localized modes. It was found be difficult match plasma...
Integrated modeling (IM) of present experiments and future tokamak reactors requires the provision computational resources numerical tools capable simulating multiscale spatial phenomena as well fast transient events relatively slow plasma evolution within a reasonably short time. Recent progress in implementation new for fusion applications Europe based on modern supercomputer technologies (supercomputer MARCONI-FUSION), optimization speedup EU fusion-related first-principle codes,...
