Investigation of Main-Chamber and Divertor Recycling in DIII-D Using Tangentially Viewing CID Cameras

Description: Measurements of the D{sub {alpha}} emission profiles from the divertor and main chamber region in DIII-D, performed in low-density L-mode, and low and high-density ELMy H-mode plasmas imply that core plasma fueling occurs through the divertor channel. Emission profiles of carbon, combined with UEDGE modeling of the L-mode plasmas, also suggests that chemical sputtering of carbon from the flux surface adjacent to the inner divertor walls, and temperature gradient forces in the scrape-off layer, … more

Simulation of the Scrape-Off Layer Plasma During a Disruption

Description: The evolution of the scrape-off layer (SOL) during a disruption in the DIII-D tokamak is modeled using the 2-D UEDGE transport code. The focus is on the thermal quench phase when most of the energy content of the discharge is rapidly transported across the magnetic separatrix where it then flows to material surfaces or is radiated. Comparisons between the simulation and an experiment on the DIII-D tokamak are made with the heat flux to the divertor plate, and temperature and density profiles at… more
