We report the observation and analysis of ion cyclotron emission (ICE) in the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) stellarator during discharges without a significant fast-ion population. In these experiments, ICE is observed using the strap of the ICRF antenna, while remaining undetectable on the B-dot probes during ECRH-only phases. At low electron densities, …

Parametric study of main flow characteristics in magnetohydrodynamic flow in the exit pipe from a liquid metal blanket has been performed. The flow in such a duct occurs in a nonuniform, decreasing magnetic field. The duct wall is electrically conducting. The wall conductance ratio, c, and the gradient of the field, γ, have been varied in a wide r…

Mixed convection of an electrically conductive fluid in a square duct with imposed transverse magnetic field is studied using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) paradigms. The duct walls are electrically conductive, with the wall conductivity parameter cw ranging from 0 to 0.5. The Reynolds number is Re = 5602 and the Prandtl number is Pr = 0.0238. The fo…

While substantial research effort has been made recently in the development of computational liquid-metal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) solvers, this has typically been confined to closed-source and commercial codes. This work aimed to investigate some open-source alternatives. Two OpenFOAM-based MHD solvers, mhdFoam and epotFoam, were found to sho…

On JET the coupling resistance averaged over the four straps of the A2 antennas in the Mark II GB divertor configuration was analyzed with particular emphasis on the plasma shape dependence. The measured values were compared with models for the coupling resistance of different levels of sophistication with the ultimate goal of supplying recipes on …
