3 OUTLINE W accumulation in NBI only JET plasmas: results and understanding Understanding possible effects of ICRH on W accumulation First results of ICRH application in Hybrid and Baseline H-modes Future plans in view of achieving stable scenarios for JET D-T campaign P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 3
4 W accumulation in NBI only JET plasmas W accumulation due to neoclassical transport, strongly enhanced by centrifugal effects causing poloidal asymmetries due to W localization on the LFS Neoclassical convection turns to inward due to density evolution from hollow to peaked after L-H transition In high collisionality scenarios, in addition, temperature screening is decreased by centrifugal effects [C.Angioni et al., Nucl Fus 2014; C.Angioni et al, APS 2015, Phys Plasmas in press] è Even increasing ELM frequency with enhanced gas puff, a Hybrid scenario does not last with improved confinement longer than 2-3 s, whilst Baseline scenarios can leave longer due to the presence of sawteeth. è W accumulation is a major obstacle to reaching good performance in view of the D-T campaign!

7 Time evolution of Hybrid vs Baseline W core transport physics is the same in both scenarios Due to lower collisionality, Hybrids have more peaked ne, but also more peaked Ti and better neoclassical screening Baselines benefit of regular sawteeth à overall Hybrids with NBI only are ALWAYS non stationary and performance decreases after ~2 sec due to increasing W accumulation, whilst Baselines have stationary lower performance still with peaked W Hybrid 2T/1.9 MA ne r/a=0 r/a=0.45 r/a=0.85 ne Sta H- mode 2.5 T/ 2.75MA SXR line integrals r/a=0.4 β N H98 r/a=0 r/a=0.22 β N H98 SXR line integrals P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 7
8 Need to use ICRH! Both scenarios are presently not suited to extrapolate to D-T expected performance: Target D-T: Pfus~ 15 MW for 5 sec Present Hybrid: Pfus~ 5.5 MW for 0.5 sec Present Baseline: Pfus~ 3.2MW for 3 sec/2.2 MW steady Extrapolation to full power of 40 MW (present was ~25 MW): Hybrid : Pfus~ 13 MW for? sec Not accoun>ng for isotope and α- Baseline : Pfus~ 8 MW steady par>cle effects Use of ICRH is the only option for controlling W on JET in the core Needed in Hybrids to achieve stationarity and in Baselines to alleviate the need for high gas puff detrimental for pedestal performance leading to H98~0.8 P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 8
9 Effects of ICRH on W transport ICRH acts on W transport through a number of mechanisms: Through plasma profile modification ü It flattens n e profile leading to reduction of neoclassical V inw ü Under some conditions it can also peak Ti profile leading to reduction of neoclassical V inw ü It increases core heat flux leading to more turbulence and increasing D ü It lowers rotation leading to smaller centrifugal effects and lower neoclassical transport (D&V) Through direct effects on W ü Extra screening associated to minority fast ion temperature leading to less neoclassical V inw ü Anisotropy of minority fast ion temperature T > T modifies poloidal asymmetries and can produce W localization on the HFS. This lowers neoclassical D and increases neoclassical V outw. [F.Casson et al., PPCF 2015, Angioni et al and Belli et al PPCF 2014 for NC theory aspects, Bilato NF 14 on ICRH anisotropy impact) P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 9

11 NEO+GKW in Baseline H-mode with ICRH Profile modifica>ons lower V inw but are not enough to reverse it. Direct effects of ICRH minority ions are needed to obtain V outw in the central region. Taking into account anisotropy of fast ions, this is combined to a dip in Dneocl which strengthens its effect. In addi>on a general increase of Dturb takes place in the outer region. P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 11
12 NEO+GKW in Baseline H-mode with ICRH Total D and V profiles with and without anisotropy So the total D and v profiles lead to high screening of the central region (outward V neocl+ low Dneocl in the case with anisotropy) and large turbulent diffusion in the outer region, with resul>ng W profiles going from peaked to hollow in the central region due to ICRH P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 12

OFF- axis ICRH SXR line integrals Power ON- axis ICRH NBI ICRH Indeed ON- axis ICRH maintains the central W under control and keeps some W in the outer region, whilst in the OFF- axis ICRH case the central W runs away and Te drops drama>cally.

23 CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE PLANS W accumulation in JET is dominated by neoclassical transport and due to progressive density peaking after L-H transition ICRH has proven an effective tool to modify neoclassical transport in the central region by a variety of physics mechanisms and so prevent or at least mitigate W accumulation both in Baseline H-modes and Hybrids Optimization of ICRH use and increase of ICRH power is foreseen for next campaigns: ü Fine scan of resonance posi>on in Hybrids to find best effects ü Inves>gate effect of minority concentra>on ü Apply best scheme to high performance Hybrids and Baseline H- modes ü Inves>gate effects of 3He vs H min ü Maximize ICRH power using also ITER like antenna P.Mantica US-EU TTF Salem (US) 28 th April-1 st May2015 Page 23
