Book Description
Impurity ion temperatures and parallel flow velocities in the DIII-D divertor have been measured from the shapes and shifts of visible spectral lines of C II, C III, and B II. Spectral multiplet patterns are analyzed by fitting them to theoretical profiles that incorporate exact calculations for the Zeeman/Paschen-Back effect. Ion temperatures range from 4--20 eV. Both normal flows toward the target plate and reversed flows away from the target plate are observed in the outer divertor leg; only flows toward the plate are detected in the inner leg.

Impurity Ion Flow and Temperature Measured in a Detached Divertor with Externally Applied Non-axisymmetric Fields on DIII-D.

Pages : 4
Book Description
In this study, externally applied non-axisymmetric magnetic fields are shown to have little effect on the impurity ion flow velocity and temperature as measured by the multichord divertor spectrometer in the DIII-D divertor for both attached and detached conditions. These experiments were performed in H-mode plasmas with the grad-B drift toward the target plates, with and without n = 3 resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs). The flow velocity in the divertor is shown to change by as much as 30% when deuterium gas puffing is used to create detachment of the divertor plasma. No measurable changes in the C III flow were observed in response to the RMP fields for the conditions used in this work. Images of the C III emission are used along with divertor Thomson scattering to show that the local electron and C III temperatures are equilibrated for the conditions shown.

Measurements of Divertor Impurity Concentrations on DIII-D.

Book Description
Carbon emissions in the DIII-D divertor during partial detachment have been measured, and the deduced radiated power and the temporal behavior of the impurity emissions from spectroscopy are in good agreement with bolometer measurements. Effective electron temperatures from line ratios for CIV (9-11 eV) and CIII (6-8 eV) are correlated with DTS measured electron temperatures to determine the spatial location of the carbon radiation zone. During PDD operation, the bulk of the divertor radiation is emitted from CIV near the X- point while deuterium radiation is strongest near the outer strikepoint. The carbon ion concentrations are in the range of 1% - 4% of the electron density.

Experimental Measurements and Modeling of Impurity Transport in the Divertor and Boundary Plasma of DIII-D.

Book Description
Analysis of trace impurity injection experiments on DIII-D during a beam power scan is presented. Spectroscopic measu- rements indicate that as beam power is increased, and concomitantly ELM frequency and scrape-off-layer thickness increase while energy confinement decreases, the core impurity content decreases only slightly. Modeling of the edge plasma using the UEDGE 2D and NEWT1D plasma fluid codes indicate that as beam power is increased, the parallel forces on an impurity ion increase in the direction from the divertor and toward the core plasma. Experiments using the divertor cryopump to induce higher parallel particle flow toward the divertor demonstrate significant reduction in core impurity content. These results indicate that parallel forces on impurity ions in the scrape off layer are playing a significant role in core impurity content.

Measurements of Flows in the DIII-D Divertor by Mach Probes

Pages : 16
Book Description
First measurements of Mach number of background plasma in the DIII-D divertor are presented in conjunction with temperature T{sub e} and density n{sub e} using a fast scanning probe array. To validate the probe measurements, the authors compared the T{sub e}, n{sub e} and J{sub sat} data to Thomson scattering data and find good overall agreement in attached discharges and some discrepancy for T{sub e} and n{sub e} in detached discharges. The discrepancy is mostly due to the effect of large fluctuations present during detached plasmas on the probe characteristic; the particle flux is accurately measured in every case. A composite 2-D map of measured flows is presented for an ELMing H-mode discharge and they focus on some of the details. They have also documented the temperature, density and Mach number in the private flux region of the divertor and the vicinity of the X-point, which are important transition regions that have been little studied or modeled. Background parallel plasma flows and electric fields in the divertor region show a complex structure.
