Measurements of carbon and tungsten erosion/deposition in the DIII-D divertor

Description: Net erosion/deposition rates of carbon and tungsten were measured at the outer strike point of the divertor plasma on the floor of the DIII-D tokamak during deuterium H-mode operation at a peak power deposition of about 40 W/cm{sup 2}. For carbon, net erosion rates of up to 4 nm/s were found. For a tungsten film, no appreciable erosion was detected. However, measurements of deposited tungsten on adjacent carbon surfaces indicated a net W erosion rate of 0.06 nm/s.

OEDGE Modeling of {sup 13}C Deposition in the Inner Divertor of DIII-D

Description: Use of carbon in tokamaks leads to a major tritium retention issue due to co-deposition. To investigate this process a low power (no beams) L-mode experiment was performed on DIII-D in which {sup 13}CH{sub 4} was puffed into the main vessel through the toroidally-symmetric pumping plenum at the top of lower single-null discharges. Subsequently, the {sup 13}C content of tiles taken from the vessel wall was measured. The interpretive OEDGE code was used to model the results. It was found that the… more

Plasma boundary experiments on DIII-D tokamak

Description: A survey of the boundary physics research on the DIII-D tokamak and an outline of the DIII-D Advanced Divertor Program (ADP) is presented. We will present results of experiments on impurity control, impurity transport, neutral particle transport, and particle effects on core confinement over a wide range of plasma parameters, I{sub p}{approx lt} 3 MA, {beta}{sub T} {approx lt} 10.7%, P(auxiliary) {approx lt} 20 MW. Based on the understanding gained in these studies, we in collaboration with a n… more
