Multi-machine validation of full electromagnetic plasma initiation modelling with DYON was carried out by the joint modelling of the International Tokamak Physics Activity (ITPA) – Integrating Operating Scenario (IOS) group. The following devices were included in the experiment database: VEST (spherical torus, copper coils, Stainless steel wa…
In order to test the capability of the full electromagnetic DYON to predict the plasma initiation feasibility of individual discharges and thus the operating space in the device, a dedicated experimental database was built in MAST-U by scanning the prefilled gas pressure $p_0$ and the induced loop voltage $V_{loop}$ (3 failed breakdown discharge…
