1 Theory and Modeling Support for Alcator C-Mod Paul Bonoli PSFC, MIT Alcator C-Mod PAC Meeting February 2-4, 2005
2 Introduction Alcator C-Mod benefits from an extensive program of theory and modeling support in many areas: Core transport physics. Plasma boundary MHD phenomena energetic particles and MHD stability Wave plasma interactions Integrated scenario modeling
3 Introduction Theory and modeling support has two origins: Official collaborations such as PPPL, UT, IPP (Asdex-Upgrade) Individual initiatives between C-Mod personnel and theorists within MIT (PSFC Theory Group) and outside MIT. Recent C-Mod Ideas Forum generated 16 Ideas (out of 113 total) from 11 theorists and modelers. Purpose of this talk is to review several areas where theory and modeling support have impacted the physics program on C-Mod: Contributions of collaborators in theory and modeling will also be discussed in subsequent presentations more detail!

6 Core Transport Physics D. Ernst, PSFC Implemented GS2 and GYRO on parallel computing cluster (MARSHALL) at PSFC. Codes are being used by doctoral candidates on C-Mod L. Lin (GS2) and B. Bose (GYRO) Gyrokinetic simulations of ITB modes with off-axis ICRH in Alcator C-Mod: PoP, 2004, IAEA, 2004, Sherwood Oral, 2004

9 Synthetic Diagnostics for Gyrokinetic Codes (Bravenec, Rowan) Developed a synthetic diagnostic [following Nevins, LLNL Rept. No. UCRL-TR , August, 2004] to take gyrokinetic code output from GYRO [J. Candy, J. Comput. Phys. 186, 545 (2003)] and simulate beam-emission spectroscopy (BES) measurements of the top of the pedestal of a C-Mod EDA H-mode plasma. Simulation results indicate that the sample volume of the BES system on C-Mod was too large to detect the smallscale fluctuations.
10 Pfirsch-Schlüter Electric Field in C-Mod Pedestal P. Catto, A. Simakov (LANL) Evaluate radial electric field for arbitrary cross-section (find Hazeltine drift kinetics incomplete for viscosities) For circular flux surfaces and T e T i we have from conservation of toroidal angular momentum (Claassen & Gerhauser): r dω Ω 0 3 dr 0.19q ρ 2 0 T e T e + T i d ln T i dr 2 where and ω = c[ Φ/ ψ + (en) 1 p/ ψ ] r V = ω (ψ )R ˆ ζ + u(ψ ) B r, with u known. So ω = const if T = 0.
11 Pfirsch-Schlüter Electric Field in C-Mod Pedestal Neoclassical momentum relaxation time for L ~ 1 cm: τ m 7.8(T e +T i )L 2 T e q 2 νρ 0 2 ~50ms in C Mod pedestal C-Mod global momentum relaxation time ~ 50 ms
12 Plans: Magnetic Topology Effects on Ion Flows Magnetic topology affects C-Mod SOL flows - LaBombard Evaluated effects of magnetic topology in pedestal for: 1. Reversing plasma current 2. Reversing toroidal magnetic field 3. Reversing both current & toroidal field 4. Change from lower to upper single null Up-down symmetric and asymmetric parts of the flow behave differently for (2) and (3). Expect same symmetries in P-S and banana regimes so plan to compare to C-Mod core measurements of Rice for (4). Hope to get more results from C-Mod and perhaps NSTX P. Catto, A. Simakov (LANL)
13 Disruption mitigation studies using NIMROD Gas jet mitigation is simulated by temperature profile modification (V. Izzo, PSFC) Either, an initial condition with a modified T profile is used Or, a cold front is propagated inward as a function of time In the case on the right, the propagation speed of the cold front is 5000 m/s, or ~10 times faster than physical.
14 Instabilities produce stochasticity extending inside the imposed low temperature region, leading to additional heat transport away from the core (V. Izzo, PSFC) t=0.011 ms Results are from case with inward propagating cold front. Equilibrium reconstructed from C-MOD discharge at 800 ms.
15 TAE and Energetic Particle Studies Growth rate studies of TAE modes in C-Mod using NOVA-K: N. Gorelenkov (PPPL), F. Zonca (Frascati), B. Breizman (UT) & J. Snipes (MIT) G. Kramer (PPPL) and E. Edlund & M. Porkolab (MIT)
16 Inboard RF Resonance Alfvén Cascades are More Stable inboard RF resonance central RF resonance outboard RF resonance R res /R = 0.9 R res /R = 1.0 R res /R = 1.1 Snipes, Gorelenkov, 2004
17 Theory Predicts RF Resonance Effect on AEs Theory predicts the AE growth rate to scale as γ where is the precession drift frequency, ω ω dh F(v)dv ω ω dh ω dh which slows down as the RF resonance is moved inboard An MHD code, Nova-K, including fast particles, finite orbit width and finite Larmor radius effects was used to model RF resonance changes The central RF resonance case was scanned over pitch angle keeping all other parameters fixed at t = s at the top of a cascade Kinetic profiles were taken from TRANSP/FPPRF/TORIC which indicated a peak T H = 160 kev The q profile was assumed to have slightly reversed shear with q 0 = 2.11 and q min = 2.06 at r/a = 0.4 Snipes, Gorelenkov, PoP, 2005
18 AE Growth Rate is Lower for Inboard RF Resonance Snipes, Gorelenkov, PoP, 2005 Scanning the RF resonance radius in Nova-K indicates outboard growth rate is somewhat larger than inboard Qualitatively agrees with the experimental observation of weaker inboard modes Quantitative agreement would require measurements of the distribution function Toroidal precession drift frequency slowing on the inboard side may also explain the frequency downshift of AEs for the inboard resonance
19 Fast Ion Temperature Affects AE Growth Rate Maxwellian and pitch angle distribution in Nova-K: f exp E (p R res ) 2 /( dr ) 2 T H R axis R axis where E = mv 2 /2, T H is the fast ion temperature, p=µb axis /E, and µ is the magnetic moment µ = 1 2 mv 2 / B Snipes, Gorelenkov, PoP, 2005 AE growth rate peaks at 160 kev while finite Larmor radius effects reduce the growth rate at high tail temperatures
20 Wave Plasma Studies ICRF & LHRF Implemented synthetic diagnostic on MARSHALL cluster to understand ICRF mode conversion experiments on C- Mod (J. Wright, Y. Lin, A. Parisot, M. Porkolab, S. Wukitch, M. Brambilla): Understanding fast wave conversion to ICW and IBW is crucial for optimizing mode conversion current drive and mode conversion flow drive (Jaeger et al., PRL, 2003) for plasma profile control. Through rf SciDac Project the ICRF solver (TORIC) can now be run for complete antenna spectra with sufficient resolution to provide realistic electric fields for the synthetic PCI diagnostic. Performed full-wave simulations in the LHRF regime, demonstrating that diffraction at wave caustics can lead to significant spectral broadening (J. Wright, M. Brambilla, P. Bonoli): Spectral broadening is sufficient to explain the spectral gap in LH current drive experiments.
21 A Synthetic PCI diagnostic for TORIC The PCI on Alcator C-Mod has 32 channels that measure the perturbed density due to mode converted ICRF waves along a cord, to produce a signal. Converged electric fields from TORIC are used to reconstruct the perturbed density detected by the PCI. The figures at the right show the 2D TORIC results above the simulated PCI signal using an algorithm originally implemented by E. Melby* (*) E. Nelson-Melby, et. al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 90(15), (2003).
22 Comparison Between Simulation (Synthetic) and Experiment is Remarkable S abs [MW/m 3 ] Experiment TORIC r/a Y. Lin, A. Parisot, M. Porkolab, J. Wright, S. Wukitch PoP, 2005, PPCF, m m m Re( n e dl) Im( n e dl) n e dl Experimental Synthetic MC layer R (m) (a) (b) (c)

24 Parallel Computing Has Made it Possible to do Full-Wave Simulations of Lower Hybrid Waves (λ < 1 mm) Eliminates need to do ray tracing eventually! Injected LH waves convert between fast and slow modes. Loci of edge reflections and mode conversions in the full wave field pattern forms a ring of accessible LH waves. Simulation required 8064 MPP s on Beowulf cluster (7 day utilizing 48 nodes) J. Wright, PSFC, IAEA, 2004
25 Caustic formation in full-wave fields follows the ray tracing prediction (J. Wright, P. Bonoli, PSFC)
26 Spectral shift is large at caustic because of diffraction In ACCOME, the local n evolves to 2.5 on the high field side from 1.5 at the antenna, purely from geometric effects. In TORIC, the distribution of n on flux surfaces shows a significant upshift from an averaged launched n of 2 to >4 in the middle of the annulus at r/a=0.75. Note, TORIC broadening near antenna, before caustic, is comparable to that seen in ray tracing (the fringes are from multiple wave reflections at the plasma surface). This rapid upshift at the caustic causes all the power to be absorbed in the narrow region bound by the caustic and the edge cutoff - an effect not predicted in geometrical optics!
27 10 8 LH Power deposition profiles are both localized, but at different radii TORIC Radial Power Deposition Profile ACCOME Slh vs. r/a S(MW/m 3 /MW inc ) Slh (MW/m ) r/a r/a Differences in the absorption may be related to the downshifting of v φ by diffraction, which is high at the caustic - evidence for full wave enhancement in k filling the spectral gap.
28 Future Wave Plasma Studies Implementation of nonthermal ion and electron distribution functions in TORIC solver (J. Wright, C.K. Phillips, P. Bonoli rf SciDac): Closed loop computation with Fokker Planck and TORIC solver can then be performed. Self-consistent minority ion distributions (H and 3 He) Parallel implementation of 2D (v,v // ) Fokker Planck solver CQL3D on MARSHALL cluster (P. Bonoli, R. Harvey, C.K. Phillips, J. Wright rf SciDac): Provide accurate calculation of driven LH current for C-Mod Establish expertise for CQL3D implementation in TRANSP
29 Kinetic description of the electron distribution function (A. Ram, J. Decker, PSFC) A Fokker Planck code (DKE) has developed to solve the bounce averaged drift kinetic equation for electrons in the banana regime: Solves kinetically for the neoclassical bootstrap current. Includes a quasilinear operator for studying rf driven plasma current. Treats the interplay between the rf driven and bootstrap currents. Calculates the hard X-ray emission for comparison with LH current drive diagnostics.
30 Studies planned for Alcator C-Mod (A. Ram, J. Decker, PSFC) Modeling the coupling of ICRF waves in the edge plasma. Modeling the mode conversion of fast wave power to ICW and IBW. Using DKE to solve for the current drive due to ICW, IBW, and LH waves (including any synergism with the bootstrap current). Using DKE to understand observed hard X-ray emission during LH current drive.
31 Electric fields from a full-wave solver (TORIC) have been coupled to a finite orbit width code (ORBIT-RF) to study minority ion heating in C-Mod (M. Choi, GA, APS, 2004 rf SciDac) TORIC Simulation for N r = 200 N m = 31 Shot P RF : 1.0MW Frequency : 78 MHz B axis =5.5 T 4% (H)
32 ORBIT-RF Simulation of minority (H) distribution in C-Mod TORIC ORBIT-RF simulation results At ~30000 transit time ORBIT-RF
33 TOPICA3: ICRF Antenna Modeling Collaboration R. Maggiora (Torino); A. Parisot, S. Wukitch, J. Wright (MIT) - TOPICA3: - Fully 3D solid antenna structure model (including FS, box, ) - FELICE: - 1D full-wave ICRF solver - Non-homogeneous, FLR, absorption (fitted to curved boundary (1.5D) - Coax, voltage and current excitation of strap ports - Multi-port circuit parameters (Z, Y, S matrices) calculation; Computes currents, fields, and voltages everywhere around antenna and housing - TOPICA3 - FELICE model implemented on MARSHALL cluster.
