Title 190: Assessment of ITER startup with DIII-D similarity shapes
Name:Thomas A. Casper () Affiliation:Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
Research Area:ITER Startup, Shutdown, Vertical Stability Presentation time: Requested
Co-Author(s): T. Casper, G. Jackson, T. Luce, D. Humphreys, J. Leuer
Description:
Experimental Approach/Plan: Improve initial breakdown conditions and vary the plasma shape around the DIII-D ITER-similar shapes developed in previous experiments. Explore methods to minimize the PF coil current variations in achieving the shape evolution proposed for ITER startup. Benchmark simulations used for predictions for ITER.
