"Scenario development for D-T operation at JET"

Luca Garzotti C. Challis R. Dumont D. Frigione J. Graves E Lerche J. Mailloux M. Mantsinen F. Rimini F. Casson A. Czarnecka J. Eriksson R. Felton L. Frassinetti D. Gallart J. Garcia C. Giroud E.

Valovic JET contributors

The JET exploitation plan foresees D-T operations in 2020 (DTE2). With respect to the first D-T campaign in 1997 (DTE1), when JET was equipped with a carbon wall, the experiments will be conducted in presence of a beryllium-tungsten ITER-like wall (ILW) and will benefit from an extended and improved set of diagnostics and higher additional heating …

"Modelling of JET hybrid plasmas with emphasis on performance of combined ICRF and NBI heating"

D. Gallart M. Mantsinen C. Challis D. Frigione J. Graves E. Belonohy F. Casson A. Czarnecka J. Eriksson J. Garcia M. Goniche C. Hellesen J. Hobirk P. Jacquet E. Joffrin N. Krawczyk D. King M.

During the 2015-2016 JET campaigns many efforts have been devoted to the exploration of high-performance plasma scenarios envisaged for DT operation in JET. In this paper we review various key recent hybrid discharges and model the combined ICRF+NBI heating. These deuterium discharges with deuterium beams had the ICRF antenna frequency tuned to mat…

"Advances in Understanding and Utilising ELM Control in JET"

I.T. Chapman E. de la Luna P.T. Lang Y. Liang B. Alper P. Denner D. Frigione L. Garzotti C.J. Ham G.T.A. Huijsmans S. Jachmich G. Kocsis M. Lennholm I. Lupelli F.G. Rimini A.C.C. Sips JET Contributors

ELM control may be essential to develop ITER scenarios with a reasonable lifetime of divertor components, whilst ELM pacing may be essential to develop stationary ITER scenarios with a tungsten divertor. Resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) have mitigated ELMs in high collisionality plasmas in JET. The efficacy of RMPs in mitigating the ELMs is f…

"Power requirements for electron cyclotron current drive and ion cyclotron resonance heating for sawtooth control in ITER"

IT Chapman JP Graves O Sauter C Zucca O Asunta RJ Buttery S Coda T Goodman V Igochine T Johnson M Jucker RJ La Haye M Lennholm JET-EFDA Contributors

13MW of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) power deposited inside the q = 1 surface is likely to reduce the sawtooth period in ITER baseline scenario below the level empirically predicted to trigger neo-classical tearing modes (NTMs). However, since the ECCD control scheme is solely predicated upon changing the local magnetic shear, it is prud…
