| Title | 120: H-mode power threshold in Hydrogen plasmas | ||
| Name: | Punit Gohil ( |
Affiliation: | General Atomics |
| Research Area: | Hydrogen Discharges | Presentation time: | Not requested | Co-Author(s): | -- |
| Description: | Determine the power required to produce H-mode plasmas in hydrogen discharges for a range of plasma conditions and configurations. determine the behaviour with chaning input torque.Compare this with deureum discharges at same plasma conditions and configuration. | ||
| Experimental Approach/Plan: | Determine the threshold power for H-mode plasmas by performing power scans for different plasma conditions and configurations. Change the input torque for different conditions and evaluate how the threshold power varies. | ||
| Background: | The H-mode power threshold is expected to be higher for hydrogen discharges compared to deuterium discharges. However, detailed knowledge of the differences and the behaviour as a function of plasma conditions , configurations and input torque is severely lacking, especially for extrapolations to ITER conditions. This experiment will aim to resolve these issues. | ||
