This paper reports on the refinement (building on Ref. [1]) and application of simple formulas for electron heat transport from electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven turbulence in the pedestal. The formulas are improved by (1) improving the parameterization for certain key parameters and (2) carefully accounting for the impact of geometry a…

We compare the structure of electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven turbulence in the pedestals of two JET ITER-like-wall (ILW) type I ELMy H-mode discharges operating with similar experimental inputs but at different levels of gas fuelling. By artificially removing the toroidal drifts from our GENE gyrokinetic simulations and subsequently an…

The results of a recent gyrokinetic analysis of turbulent transport driven by the electron temperature gradient (ETG) in the MAST pedestal are presented. During the inter-ELM period, the buildup rate of the electron density gradients is faster than that of the electron temperature gradients, possibly indicating the presence of an active electron th…

Helium ash alpha-particles at 100keV in magnetically confi ned fusion plasmas may have the same Larmor radius, as well as cyclotron frequency, as the energetic beam-injected deuterons that heat the plasma. While the velocity-space distribution of the helium ash is monotonically decreasing, that of the energetic deuterons is a delta-function in…

This paper reports on the development of reduced models for electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven transport in the pedestal. Model development is enabled by a set of 61 nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations with input parameters taken from the pedestals in a broad range of experimental scenarios. The simulation data has been consolidated in a new …
