3 Outline Defining the Challenge for Fusion Energy Boundaries COMMENTS The Multiscale Science of Plasma-Material Interactions - Ø Boundary/PMI Processes, measurement science and exposure is too broad to be inclusive of every topic of interest Developing a dimensionless parameter wind-tunnel for fusion PMI - The following comments reflect my personal views on critical paths forward in both experiment, theory and computation Critical needs for boundary plasma understanding & prediction. 3

8 The PMI Science Challenge & Fusion Viability are inextricably linked Fusion Viability 1. Average neutron power loading ~ 4 MW/m 2 PSI Challenge 1. Global average exhaust power P/S ~ 1 MW/m 2 8
9 PFCs must be thin (~5 mm) to satisfy heat exhaust but thick to resist erosion & material removal & Continually maintain conformability to B field Steady-state 10 MW/m 2 heat exhaust pushes high- T He gas cooling to limits, no allowance for transients. Small Transient heat loading limits lifetime of even best materials While loss of conforming surface to B greatly accelerates loss of PFC viability & severe plasma effects. 9
10 The PMI Science Challenge & Fusion Viability are inextricably linked Fusion Viability 1. Average neutron power loading ~ 4 MW/m 2 2. Continuous 24/7 power production. PSI Challenge 1. Global average exhaust power P/S ~ 1 MW/m 2 2. Global energy throughput > 30 TJ/m 2 delivered by plasma 10
11 Erosion limits are set by complex PMI interplay & total energy throughput: Extrapolation from present devices to FNSF/reactors at least x10,000 Tungsten main-wall: ~1-10 tons of erosion from charge-exchange neutrals 300 s 2,000 s 4,300 s 9,000 s 22,000 s The wall surface never truly equilibrates because erosion cannot be turned off at all surfaces. 11
12 Material limits set by complex PMI & total energy throughput: Extrapolation from present devices to FSNF/reactors at least x10, s 2,000 s 4,300 s 9,000 s Example of 10 micron W surface microstructure over ~1/4 day in PISCES lab plasma at 1100 K Baldwin et al PSI ,000 s Micron deep W fuzz grown in Alcator C-Mod divertor in ~10 seconds at 1500 K!

21 The Plasma-Surface Interaction Science Center: addressing multiscale modeling & simulation 21
22 We seriously think we can figure out this mess by measuring surfaces every year or so in tokamaks?* * What we do now 22
23 AGNOSTIC: Proof-of-principle diagnostic development on Alcator C-Mod to provide first shot-to-shot diagnosis of plasma-facing surfaces (4) Advanced in-vessel neutron and gamma spectroscopy, unoflred with GEANT4, maps all surface properties (depth resolved!)" Hartwig, et al, Rev. Sci. Instrum
24 AGNOSTIC* requires leading edge nuclear transport modeling and simulations Full 3-D model of tokamak GEANT4 simulation of Scintillation detection *Accelerator-based Gamma and Neutron Observing Surface-diagnosing Tool for In-situ Components 24

26 Outline Defining the Challenge for Fusion Energy Boundaries The Multiscale Science of Plasma-Material Interactions Ø Processes, measurement and exposure Developing a dimensionless parameter wind-tunnel for fusion PMI Critical needs for boundary plasma understanding & prediction. 26
27 Proposal: Use dimensionless similarity to study coupled issues of edge plasma, PMI and materials in a scaled-down device* Dimensionless parameter scaling techniques are a powerful tool to study complex physical systems (e.g. wind-tunnel for aeronautics) Ø Especially in tokamak fusion experiments where full-size cost is prohibitive. Objective: provide similarity for critical parameters in reactor while avoiding technology limits in scaled-down device Ø Full similarity is not possible Ø The well-known P/R divertor scaling does not meet these objectives A new P/S scaling (actually a set of requirements) provides fidelity to reactor divertor conditions in a small device which is used as the physics basis for Vulcan. * Special Issue on the Vulcan Conceptual Design, Fusion Engineering Design March
28 Lessons about using dimensionless similarity in core Critical dimensionless parameters are posited based on physical reasoning (without proof), for example Kadomtsev constants M i M p ~ a R q ~ B T B P β ~ nt B 2 ν * ~ nr ρ * ~ T 1/2 T 2 BR Leads to size scaling of plasma parameters n ~ R 2 T ~ R 1/2 B ~ R 5/4 28

B since power density ~ B 4 Therefore full matching is not practically useful: what to relax? One chooses rho* based on physical reasoning Far below unity and therefore avoids any threshold effect. Is practically difficult to vary in one device. N.B.: this practical strategy leads to experimental validation* * Luce et al PPCF 50 (2008) 29
30 The challenge is that many more parameters become important in boundary / PMI. Cleverness in similarity is mandatory Lackner and others (90 s) made reasonable argument that atomic physics important in SOL: posited T/E atomic =cst. à T = cst. Global power balance // Spitzer conduction // Pressure balance P/R scaling Much is implicit in P/R scaling! Radial power width λ r ~ R, which requires q // ~ 1/R!! This guarantees cannot implement P/R scaling in a scaled-down device since power density must be near technology limit ~10 MW/m 2 Aspect ratio must be matched (ST does not simulate AT reactor) Density must be much larger in smaller device (current drive)? Lackner, Cont. Plasma Physics 15 (1994), Whyte, et al Fus. Eng. Des. (2012) 30

40 Proposed P/S scaling rules provide matched divertor/ SOL parameters in scaled-down device à reactor PMI wind-tunnel VULCAN 1. Non-inductive steady-state operation (arbitrary long pulses) 2. Areal heating power density P/S (~1 MW/m 2 ) 3. Magnetic field B (~6-7 Tesla) of reactor { λ p ~ R through ballooning limit} 4. Geometry matched: R/a, q, L // /R, etc. 5. Core density: n ~ R -2/7 6. Ambient wall temperature matched (> 500 C) With an implicit 7 th requirement that embodies the philosophy of the scaling law: 7. The scaling laws must actually allow for the construction and operation of the scaled down device (duh!) 40
41 P/S scaling : A practical approach to providing a high fidelity reactor PMI wind-tunnel P/R inherently fails to match atomic physics (n~r -1 ) & cannot be operated due to violation of heat flux limits 41

61 Take away messages The boundary plasma and its material interface will continue to grow in importance and challenges for integrated fusion devices à reactor This is not simply a technology issue, there is no unobtainium, rather we must push ourselves to the knowledge frontiers of boundary plasma and material science. Fusion theory and computation must become more than plasma theory and will be critical in achieving success. 61
