Challenges of ab initio simulations to physics of burning plasma confinement

Watanabe, Tomohiko*; Idomura, Yasuhiro; Todo, Yasushi*; Honda, Mitsuru*

Nihon Genshiryoku Gakkai-Shi ATOMO$$Sigma$$, 64(3), p.152 - 156, 2022/03

Understanding of physical processes of particle, momentum, and thermal transports is essential for predicting the confinement performance of burning plasmas in ITER, which is targeting the scientific demonstration of magnetic confinement fusion. First principles based simulations on Fugaku disclosed physical mechanisms such as complex transport processes of multi-scale turbulence in deuterium-tritium plasmas and kinetic effects in energetic particle transport due to electromagnetic fluctuations. We promote further research and development of first principles based simulations towards the performance prediction of burning plasmas.

Acceleration of fusion plasma turbulence simulation on Fugaku and Summit

Idomura, Yasuhiro; Ina, Takuya*; Ali, Y.*; Imamura, Toshiyuki*

Dai-34-Kai Suchi Ryutai Rikigaku Shimpojiumu Koen Rombunshu (Internet), 6 Pages, 2020/12

A new communication avoiding (CA) Krylov solver with a FP16 (half precision) preconditioner is developed for a semi-implicit finite difference solver in the Gyrokinetic Toroidal 5D full-f Eulerian code GT5D. In the solver, the bottleneck of global collective communication is resolved using a CA-Krylov subspace method, and halo data communication is reduced by the FP16 preconditioner, which improves the convergence property. The FP16 preconditioner is designed based on the physics properties of the operator and is implemented using the new support for FP16 SIMD operations on A64FX. The solver is ported also on GPUs, and the performance of ITER size simulations with $$sim 0.1$$ trillion grids is measured on Fugaku (A64FX) and Summit (V100). The new solver accelerates GT5D by $$2 sim3times$$ from the conventional non-CA solver, and excellent strong scaling is obtained up to 5,760 CPUs/GPUs both on Fugaku and Summit.

A New hybrid kinetic electron model for full-f gyrokinetic simulations

Idomura, Yasuhiro

Journal of Computational Physics, 313, p.511 - 531, 2016/05

 Times Cited Count:36 Percentile:91.82(Computer Science, Interdisciplinary Applications)

A new hybrid kinetic electron model is developed for electrostatic full-f gyrokinetic simulations of the ion temperature gradient driven trapped electron mode (ITG-TEM) turbulence at the ion scale. In the model, a full kinetic electron model is applied to the full-f gyrokinetic equation, the multi-species linear Fokker-Planck collision operator, and an axisymmetric part of the gyrokinetic Poisson equation, while in a non-axisymmetric part of the gyrokinetic Poisson equation, turbulent fluctuations are determined only by kinetic trapped electrons responses. By using this approach, the so-called $$omega_H$$ mode is avoided with keeping important physics such as the ITG-TEM, the neoclassical transport, the ambipolar condition, and particle trapping and detrapping processes. The model enables full- f gyrokinetic simulations of ITG-TEM turbulence with a reasonable computational cost.

Development of large scale fusion plasma simulation and storage grid on JAERI Origin3800 system

Under the Numerical EXperiment of Tokamak (NEXT) research project, various fluid, particle, and hybrid codes have been developed. These codes require a computational environment which consists of high performance processors, high speed storage system, and high speed parallelized visualization system. In this paper, the performance of the JAERI Origin3800 system is examined from a point of view of these requests. In the performance tests, it is shown that the representative particle and fluid codes operate with $$15 sim 40$$% of processing efficiency up to 512 processors. A storage area network (SAN) provides high speed parallel data transfer. A parallel visualization system enables order of magnitude faster visualization of a large scale simulation data compared with the previous graphic workstations. Accordingly, an extremely advanced simulation environment is realized on the JAERI Origin3800 system. Recently, development of a storage grid is underway in order to improve a computational environment of remote users. The storage grid is constructed by a combination of SAN and a wavelength division multiplexer (WDM). The preliminary tests show that compared with the existing data transfer methods, it enables dramatically high speed data transfer $$sim100$$Gbps over a wide area network.

Slablike ion temperature gradient driven mode in reversed shear tokamaks

Idomura, Yasuhiro; Tokuda, Shinji; Kishimoto, Yasuaki

New Journal of Physics (Internet), 4(1), p.101.1 - 101.13, 2002/12

The ion temperature gradient driven (ITG) mode in reversed shear tokamaks is analyzed using a gyrokinetic toroidal particle code. It is found that the ITG mode in the reversed shear configuration shows a coupled mode structure between the slab and toroidal ITG modes. Especially in the $$q_{min}$$ region, a slab like feature due to the reversed shear slab ITG mode becomes strong. This coupled eigenmode structure is changed from a slab mode to a toroidal mode depending on $$eta_i=L_n/L_{ti}$$ and $$L_{ti}$$. Results show that in reversed shear tokamaks, the ITG mode is determined from a competition between the slab and toroidal ITG modes.

Full-f gyrokinetic simulations in three-dimensional plasma equilibrium

Matsuoka, Seikichi; Idomura, Yasuhiro

no journal, , 

Recently, full-f gyrokinetic simulations, in which the total plasma distribution is evolved based on the first principle, attracted much attention in the plasma transport study. Rich physics has been revealed by the simulations in axisymmetric tokamak plasmas such as JT-60 and ITER. However, no full-f gyrokinetic simulations in non-axisymmetric, or three-dimensional magnetic field equilibria such as stellarators and/or helical devices have been reported so far due to their complicated magnetic field geometries which requires more computational resources. In this work, we extend a full-f gyrokinetic simulation code, GT5D, to treat three-dimensional magnetic equilibria by modifying its coordinates, and develop a new interface between GT5D and VMEC, where VMEC is a numerical tool to construct a three-dimensional magnetic equilibria. In the presentation, we present benchmark results as a numerical verification of GT5D+VMEC by comparing the collisional (neoclassical) transport.
