In a continuing effort to validate turbulent transport models, the electron energy flux has been probed as a function of electron temperature gradient on the DIII-D tokamak. In the scan of gradient, a critical electron temperature gradient has been found in the electron heat fluxes and stiffness at various radii in L-mode plasmas. The TGLF reduced turbulent transport model (Staebler et al 2007 Phys. Plasmas14 055909) and full gyrokinetic GYRO model (Candy and Waltz 2003 J. Comput. Phys. 186 545) recover the general trend of increasing electron energy flux with increasing electron temperature gradient scale length, but they do not predict the absolute level of transport at all radii and gradients. Comparing the experimental observations of incremental (heat pulse) diffusivity and stiffness to the models' reveals that TGLF reproduces the trends in increasing diffusivity and stiffness with increasing electron temperature gradient scale length with a critical gradient behavior. The critical gradient of TGLF is found to have a dependence on q95, contrary to the independence of the experimental critical gradient from q95.

乱流輸送モデルの検証を継続する取り組みの中で、DIII-Dトカマクにおいて電子温度勾配の関数として電子エネルギー束が調べられた。勾配の走査において、Lモードプラズマの様々な半径位置での電子熱流束と剛性に臨界電子温度勾配が見いだされた。TGLF簡約乱流輸送モデル(Staebler et al 2007 Phys. Plasmas 14 055909)および完全ジャイロ運動論的GYROモデル(Candy and Waltz 2003 J. Comput. Phys. 186 545)は、電子温度勾配スケール長の増加に伴う電子エネルギー束の増加という一般的傾向を再現するが、全ての半径位置と勾配における輸送の絶対レベルを予測するわけではない。実験観測による増分(熱パルス)拡散率と剛性をモデルと比較すると、TGLFは臨界勾配挙動を伴う、電子温度勾配スケール長の増加に伴う拡散率と剛性の増加傾向を再現することが明らかになる。TGLFの臨界勾配はq95に依存性を持つことが見いだされたが、これは実験的な臨界勾配がq95に依存しないこととは対照的である。
