NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF SAWTOOTH OSCILLATION DURING ELECTRON CYCLOTRON HEATING PHASES
|
Abstract:
By employing two models, namely the reconnection model and the turbulence model, we present a transport code simulation of sawtooth discharges in T-10 Tokamak in the electron cyclotron heating phases, and the trigger conditions are also coupled into the transport code. In one discharge, ECRH was located nearly on-axis, and in another ECRH was located well off-axis. The comparison of numerical results and experiment data show that good prediction was obtained with the turbulence model. In contrast, due to some fundamental shortcoming of the reconnection model, no satisfactory fit could be obtained using the latter.
