Zonal flow generation and its nonlinear dynamics in trapped electron mode turbulence of flat density tokamak plasmas

Z.B. Guo, T.S. Hahm2016年被引用 11Nuclear FusionIF 3出版社

We investigate zonal flow (ZF) generation in ion temperature gradient driven trapped-electron-mode (ITG-driven TEM) turbulence via modulational instability analysis. We show that the acceleration of a seed ZF is a consequence of the competition of negative radiation pressure (NRP, acting as a driving force) and positive radiation pressure (PRP, acting as a retarding force) of the ITG-driven TEM turbulence. A critical dimensionless ion temperature logarithmic gradient () normalized to the major radius is obtained by balancing the NRP- and PRP effects. For , the NRP effect is dominant and the seed ZF is accelerated. Otherwise, the PRP effect is dominant and the seed ZF is decelerated. In addition, a new nonlinear evolution mechanism of the ZF is also proposed. It is shown that the turbulence energy intensity spectrum gets steepened in k-space due to the ZF shearing, which in turn induces nonlinear growth of the ZF.

我々は、変調不安定性解析により、イオン温度勾配駆動捕捉電子モード(ITG-driven TEM)乱流における帯状流(ZF)生成を調べる。種ZFの加速は、ITG-driven TEM乱流の負の放射圧(NRP、駆動力として作用)と正の放射圧(PRP、減速力として作用)の競合の結果であることを示す。メジャー半径で規格化された臨界無次元イオン温度対数勾配()は、NRP効果とPRP効果の釣り合いにより得られる。()の場合、NRP効果が支配的であり、種ZFは加速される。それ以外の場合、PRP効果が支配的であり、種ZFは減速される。さらに、ZFの新しい非線形発展機構も提案する。ZFせん断により乱流エネルギー強度スペクトルがk空間で急峻化し、それが今度はZFの非線形成長を誘起することが示される。
