Description

The effects of a poloidal potential variation of or der c{var_epsilon}, heating or neutral beam injection, upon neoclassical particle transport and plasma current are studied theoretically, for a realistic tokamak plasma with significant impurity content. Using an approximate collision operator, an analytic procedure is employed to calculate the transport coefficients in the low collisionality regime for a large aspect ratio tokamak. In the presence of carbon impurity, the ion diffusion coefficients are generally found to increase by a factor of {approximately} 2. Inclusion of the effects of a poloidal electric field is found to result in an increase in the … continued below

Description

The effects of a poloidal potential variation of or der c{var_epsilon}, heating or neutral beam injection, upon neoclassical particle transport and plasma current are studied theoretically, for a realistic tokamak plasma with significant impurity content. Using an approximate collision operator, an analytic procedure is employed to calculate the transport coefficients in the low collisionality regime for a large aspect ratio tokamak. In the presence of carbon impurity, the ion diffusion coefficients are generally found to increase by a factor of {approximately} 2. Inclusion of the effects of a poloidal electric field is found to result in an increase in the bootstrap current if the potential on the outside of the tokamak is greater than that on the inside (as during ICRH or NBI) and the density profiles are more peaked than roughly the square root of the temperature profiles.
