Vertical control of DIII-D discharges with strong negative triangularity

Through predictive modeling validated by a series of experiments on DIII-D, the vertical stability of low β diverted plasmas with strong negative triangularity (NT) () is assessed. As a result of their unique magnetic geometry, NT plasmas feature larger Shafranov shifts and more elongated inner flux surfaces than positive triangularity counterparts, typically leading to enhanced vertical instability growth rates. However, coupling with the non-conformal vessel DIII-D wall reduces these growth rates to controllable values, providing a path forward for stabilizing strongly NT plasma with a diverted geometry. These discharges are used to validate GSdesign (part of the TokSys code suite) stability calculations in strong NT plasmas on DIII-D, with errors of no more than ∼20% observed between modeled and experimentally measured growth rates. Additions of diagnostic noise and power supply tuning to the TokSys model are needed to accurately capture the time dependence of DIII-D NT discharges, assisting with the design of control schemes specific to the DIII-D poloidal field coils. Finally, implications of these results on a future NT reactor are briefly described.

DIII-Dにおける一連の実験によって検証された予測モデリングを通じて、強い負の三角形度(NT)()を有する低βダイバータ配位プラズマの垂直安定性が評価される。その独特な磁気幾何学形状の結果として、NTプラズマは正の三角形度の対応物よりも大きなシャフラノフシフトとより細長い内部磁気面を特徴とし、典型的には増大した垂直不安定性成長率をもたらす。しかしながら、非共形 vessel DIII-D壁との結合は、これらの成長率を制御可能な値まで低減し、ダイバータ配位を有する強NTプラズマの安定化への道筋を提供する。これらの放電は、DIII-Dにおける強NTプラズマ中のTokSysコードスイートの一部であるGSdesignの安定性計算を検証するために使用され、モデル化された成長率と実験的に測定された成長率の間で約20%以下の誤差が観測される。DIII-D NT放電の時間依存性を正確に捉えるためには、診断ノイズと電源チューニングの追加がTokSysモデルに必要であり、DIII-Dポロイダル磁場コイルに固有の制御スキームの設計を支援する。最後に、これらの結果が将来のNT炉に与える影響について簡潔に述べる。
