Chu 12 th Workshop on MHD Stability Control: Improved MHD Control Configurations Columbia University New York, NY Sunday, November 18 Tuesday, November 20, 2007 Work supported by U.S. Department of Contract No. DE-AC02-76-CH03073.

2 Multimode analysis of RWM feedback with the NMA code Columbia University, New York, NY, November 18 20, Introduction The nma code utilizes the full spectrum of mhd modes from dcon. With the resisitve shell included, a complete set of open loop (without feedback) eigenfunctions are calculated from energy integrals that include the dissipation in the shell. These eigenmodes can have varying helicities, both positive and negative. They are included as circuit elements in the circuit equations that describes the feedback process. We have calculated the effects of a variety of feedback coil configurations on iter relevant equilibria, examining the mode structures before, and after the stabilization of the rwm. The efficiency of the feedback depends strongly on the phasing of the coils with respect to each other, and to the rwm. The efficiency is also dependent on the interaction of the modes with each other. The RWM is deformed (non-rigid) during the feedback process. Stable modes can perhaps be driven by imperfect coils. Experimental demonstration of these effects could be interesting.

3 Multimode analysis of RWM feedback with the NMA code Columbia University, New York, NY, November 18 20, Normal Mode Approach to Feedback Stabilization of the RWM is based on the Extended Principle W p + K + W v +D w + E c = 0 Perturbed Plasma Kinetic Perturbed Vacuum Dissipation in Resistive Wall Input from External Coil General static plasma equilibrium Chu, Chance, Glasser, Okabayashi, NF, 43, 441 (2003) General external modes W ithout feedback, the energy principle is reduced to the self-adjoint expression W p + K + W v +D w + E c = 0 Perturbed Plasma DCON Perturbed Vacuum VACUUM Dissipation in Resistive Wall Tank A set of normal modes can satisfy this relationship and they are the the open loop eigenfunctions (R W Ms) 3 chu ITPA Meeting 2007

The open-loop growth rates computed by the nma code agree with those obtained by mars-f.

8 Multimode analysis of RWM feedback with the NMA code Columbia University, New York, NY, November 18 20, Typical Gain vs. Phase Behavior Modeling RWM Experiments with NMA We have used the NMA code to calculate the marginal gain versus the phasing of the feedback coils that is needed to stabilize the RWM in the ITER device. marginal gain Mid_plane coil only with off_midplane The mid-plane coil is optimized to the mode here off_midplane coil toroidal phase (rad)

9 Multimode analysis of RWM feedback with the NMA code Columbia University, New York, NY, November 18 20, Mode Structures We have also looked at the mode pattern on the resistive shell with and without the feedback, showing the mode deformation due to the coils Bn pattern on the plasma surface Mid_plane coil only at marginal gain (g=6) Mid_plane coil + Off_midplane at marginal gain (g=10) poloidal direction top Eigenmode no-feedback bottom toroidal direction

Chance, M. Chu,A. Garofalo..) growth rate ITER Mid-PLANE COIL RWM FEEDBACK - The mode-coil phase mismatch requires higher gain. The negative helicity mode contribution is inhibitive 0 φ= gain Mode pattern on plasma surface tor. angle normal RWM branch coupled with Negative helicity branch φ (degrees) : Coil pattern toroidal shift relative to the optimized toroidal coil geometry pol. angle

12 Multimode analysis of RWM feedback with the NMA code Columbia University, New York, NY, November 18 20, Conclusions The efficiency of the feedback depend strongly on the phasing of the coils with respect to each other and to the rwm. The efficiency is also dependent on the interaction of the modes with each other. The RWM is deformed (non-rigid) during the feedback process. This can be minimized by optimizing the coupling to the rwm Stable modes can perhaps be excited by imperfect coils and overdriving the feedback system. Experimental demonstration of these effects could be interesting.
