2 MOTIVATIONS Why to study also plasma shapes different from ITER? A tool for test and validation of transport modeling δ=+0.4 δ=-0.4 Confinement in the core improves towards negative triangularity (at least in L-mode!) 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
3 Energy confinement improves towards δ < 0 (at low ν eff ~ 0.2-1) [ms] 15 I p [ka] 260 P tot MW τ Ee improvement is not explained by gradient geometrical (=shape) factor, -> χ e is thus varying with triangularity τ 19 ( /ne_av) Ee 260 & δ OH EC Plasma conditions: low density ECH plasmas, high R/L Te >7 and T e /T i, low collisionality ν eff -> TEM dominated regime (no ETG due to high Z eff & T e /T i, in range 0.2<ρ<0.7) Coda 98, Pochelon NF99 & EPS99, Weisen NF98 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept

Turbulence characteristics with triangularity 3. Global linear gyrokinetic simulations FROM LOCAL TO GLOBAL GK simulations 4. Conclusions and Outlook 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept

10 T e and n e fluctuations behaviour with ν eff (from GS2 simulations) (δt e /<T e >) 2 (δn e /<n e >) 2 Motivation: outer plasma not totally blackbody in for ECE: since optical depth at ρ v =0.55 is < 3, thus measured fluct. attributable to both T e and n e ν eff from GS2: - both (T e,n e )-fluctuations show same trend with ν eff - direction of propagation characteristic of TEM The amplitude reduction with ν eff is also consistent with TEM drive reduction due to TE collisional detrapping Udintsev, Fable US-TTF09 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
11 Triangularity scan measuring location profiles δ=+0.4 δ=-0.4 ρ v =0.6 on LFS equator (taking into account varied Shafranov shift in δ=±0.4; significative since CSD doubles each ΔR/a~10%) matching δ=-0.4, 250 kw Ohmic profiles by adding 580 kw ECH in δ= rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept

13 Varying separation of detection volumes Norm. Cross Spectral Density [a.u.] 2.5 x δ = Δf = 0.24 GHz (#39304) Δf = 0.50 GHz (#39301) Δf = 1.00 GHz (#39302) Δf = 1.50 GHz (#39303) ρ = 0.6 Δf [GHz] - scan, ρ v ~0.6 CSD amplitude decreasing with radial separation Frequency [Hz] x rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
14 Correlation lengths: δ = ± 0.4, OH/EC Radial correlation length λ c : δ = -0.4 OH δ =+0.4 EC δ =+0.4 OH - shorter at δ <0 (factor ~ 2) - larger with EC to reach same T e and n e profiles, but thus with doubled heat flux 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
15 Global linear GK simulation with ORB 30 δ = +0.5 γ [10 4 s 1 ] δ=+0.5 δ=+0.2 δ= 0.3 k ρ s 0.4 δ = -0.3 γ/k 2 [m 2 /s] δ=+0.5 δ = -0.3 mixing length transport n n=10 LORB GK simul. linear, global [Camenen, Bottino05] 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
16 Comparing correlation length: expt. λ c / k lin. global GK simul δ = 0.4, P ECRH = 580 kw δ = 0.4, P ECRH = 0 kw R 12 (0) (δt e /T e ) 2 [a.u.] 10 4 δ = δ = EC n=10 δ = ρ Frequency separation Δf [GHz] δ = -0.3 Radial turb. correlation length λ c and λ ~1/k, both reduced by factor ~ 2 linear global GK simulations appear to suggest correct trend! 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
17 Comparing spectra (expt. turbulence / GK TEM transport) 30 Norm. Cross Spectra Density [a.u.] 2.5 x δ = δ = δ = 0.39, Δf = 0.24 [GHz] (#39304) δ = 0.45, Δf = 0.24 [GHz] (#38230) Frequency [Hz] x 10 5 CSD reduced at δ <0, predominantly at the low frequencies ρ = 0.60 γ [10 4 s 1 ] k ρ s γ/k 2 [m 2 /s] δ=+0.5 δ = -0.3 mixing length transport δ=+0.5 δ=+0.2 δ= χ e_mixing length reduced at δ <0, predominantly at the low n (role of the large, global structures) n 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
18 Correlation length λ c and χ e versus collisionality from corr - ECE from power balance 10 8 δ=+0.4 δ=+0.2 δ= 0.2 δ= 0.4 δ=+0.4 χ e [m 2 /s] 6 4 δ= ρ= /ν T /(ne Z ) eff e eff Camenen 07 Correlation length λ c and χ e show both similar reduction with collisionality and negative triangularity 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
19 Conclusions At negative triangularity, compared to positive, - τ Ee is improved and χ e reduced (both factor ~2) - both radial correlation length λ c, and turbulence amplitudes reduce (by factor ~2) The (so far linear) comparison with global GK code ORB shows similar trends: λ ~1/k is reduced with negative triangularity (similar trend with δ as the measured correlation length λ c, apparently a relevant (linear!) hint for TEM developped turb....) - role of low n, low frequency - large radial structures - in the variation of transport with δ. plasma shape: a tool to investigatate transport properties for model validation - in particular their dependence on equilibrium geometry! 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
20 Outlook next step aims at a more detailed comparision beween expt and GK-modeling, using e.g. non-lin global ORB5 code with an artificial diagnostics, mimicking correce measurements wishful next experimental step: evolve to multi-channel correce (from present 2-point-correlation diag.) : - opens to new physics domain: non-local transport, avalanches, meso-scale structures (as in present NL global GK codes) - allows for a more efficient tokamak use, 2-point-only-correlations limiting investigations further explorations with oblique line-of-sight angles to resolve turbulence structures (e.g.: link between λ c and potential cell orientation) 3 rd EFDA TTG & 15 th EU-US TTF 7-10 Sept
