Title 221: Gas Injection Feedback with Radiation Measurements
Name:Egemen Kolemen ekolemen@pppl.gov Affiliation:Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory
Research Area:Divertor & SOL Physics Presentation time: Requested
Co-Author(s): T. Petrie, N. Eidietis, D. Humphreys ITPA Joint Experiment : No
Description: Measure the radiation at various location in the plasma (main, divertor, ...) using bolometer channels. By using these real-time measurements, adjust the gas injection of various species (Argon, Neon, Deuterium,...) to keep power exhaust, detachment, and many other parameters at desired values. ITER IO Urgent Research Task : No
Experimental Approach/Plan: Develop and test the radiation control.
Use it to control power ?ux into the divertor, divertor
temperature and the power load as estimated by the
bolometric calculations of main chamber and divertor radiation
Background: This feedback has been successfully used at Asdex-Upgrade with great utility. (See, A. Kallenbach et al 2012 Nucl. Fusion 52 122003 and reference within)
Resource Requirements: PCS code upgrade and 1/2-1 day of experimental time to study the physics.
Diagnostic Requirements: --
Analysis Requirements: --
Other Requirements: --
