Enhanced vertical displacement events (VDEs), which are frequently observed in JT-60U disruptive discharges, are investigated using the Tokamak Simulation Code (TSC). The rapid plasma current quench can accelerate the vertical displacement, owing to both the up/down asymmetry of the eddy current distribution arising from the asymmetric geometry of the JT-60U vacuum vessel and the degradation of magnetic field decay index n, leading to high growth rates of positional instability. For a slightly elongated configuration (n=-0.9), the asymmetry of attractive forces on the toroidal plasma plays a dominant role in the VDE mechanism. For a more elongated configuration (n=-1.7), the degradation of field decay index n plays an important role on VDEs, in addition to the effect of asymmetric attractive forces. It is shown that the VDE characteristics of a highly elongated configuration with a rapid plasma current quench can be dominated by the field decay index degradation. It is also pointed out that both the softening of current quenches as was experimentally developed in the JT-60U tokamak, and the optimization of the allowable elongation of the plasma cross-section are critical issues in the development of a general control strategy of discharge termination

増強された垂直変位事象(VDE)は、JT-60Uのディスラプション放電において頻繁に観測されており、トカマクシミュレーションコード(TSC)を用いて調査されている。急速なプラズマ電流減衰は、JT-60U真空容器の非対称形状に起因する渦電流分布の上下非対称性と、磁場減衰指数nの低下の両方により、垂直変位を加速し、位置不安定性の高い成長率をもたらす可能性がある。弱い楕円変形の配位(n=-0.9)では、トロイダルプラズマに対する非対称な引力がVDEメカニズムにおいて主要な役割を果たす。より強い楕円変形の配位(n=-1.7)では、非対称な引力の効果に加えて、磁場減衰指数nの低下がVDEにおいて重要な役割を果たす。急速なプラズマ電流減衰を伴う強い楕円変形の配位では、VDE特性が磁場減衰指数の低下によって支配され得ることが示されている。また、JT-60Uトカマクにおいて実験的に開発された電流減衰の軟化と、プラズマ断面の許容楕円変形度の最適化の両方が、放電終結の一般的な制御戦略の開発における重要な課題であることも指摘されている。
