被引用回数：35 パーセンタイル：80.59(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)In order to prepare adequate current ramp-up and ramp-down scenarios for ITER, present experiments from various tokamaks have been analysed by means of integrated modelling in view of determining relevant heat transport models for these operation phases. A set of empirical heat transport models for L-mode has been validated on a multi-machine experimental dataset for predicting the 
dynamics within 
0.15 accuracy during current ramp-up and ramp-down phases. The most accurate heat transport models are then applied to projections to ITER current ramp-up, focusing on the baseline inductive scenario (main heating plateau current of 
MA). These projections include a sensitivity study to various assumptions of the simulation. While the heat transport model is at the heart of such simulations, more comprehensive simulations are required to test all operational aspects of the current ramp-up and ramp-down phases of ITER scenarios. Recent examples of such simulations, involving coupled core transport codes, free-boundary equilibrium solvers and a poloidal field (PF) systems controller are also described, focusing on ITER current ramp-down.

The most accurate heat transport models are then applied to projections to ITER current ramp-up, focusing on the baseline inductive scenario (main heating plateau current of Ip = 15 MA). These projections include a sensitivity studies to various assumptions of the simulation. Recent examples of such simulations, involving coupled core transport codes, free boundary equilibrium solvers and a poloidal field (PF) systems controller are described in the second part of the paper, focusing on ITER current ramp-down.

ITERでの電流立ち上げ・立ち下げシナリオの準備に向けて、これら運転状態においてどの熱輸送モデルが適切であるかを決定するために、代表的なトカマクでの現在の実験結果を統合モデルシミュレーションにより解析した。本研究では、トカマク実験の解析結果をもとに、ITER標準誘導運転(プラズマ電流15MA)の電流立ち上げ・立ち下げシナリオでの予測を行った。統合モデルシミュレーション結果を、ASDEX Upgrade, C-Mod, DIII-D, JET, Tore Supraのオーミック加熱プラズマ及び外部加熱・電流駆動プラズマ実験データと比較することにより、さまざまな輸送モデルの検証を行った。最も実験結果の再現性の良かった幾つかのモデルを用いて、ITERの電流立ち上げ・立ち下げ段階での電子密度・電流密度プロファイルの予測を行った。電子温度プロファイルには輸送モデルによって大きな差が見られたが、最終的な電流密度プロファイルはモデル間でよく一致することがわかった。

The modeling of the steady-state ITER scenarios is reviewed, as a subject of common work of the ITPA-SSO group. Focus is made not only on the basic physics issues, resulting from theory and experiments, but also on the difficulties and the needs of integrated modeling. Specific issues connected with high bootstrap fraction in the long pulse operation are addressed. Bootstrap current can be enhanced either by large pedestal temperatures, or by Internal Transport Barriers (ITB). Recent simulations for both high-pedestal scenarios and ITB scenarios are compared. Results of code benchmarking for typical parameters of ITER scenarios are also analyzed, and prospects for improvement of the integrated modeling capability will be discussed.

国際トカマク物理活動の定常運転グループでは統合シミュレーションコードのベンチマークを始めており、CRONOS, ONETWO, TRANSP, TOPICS, ASTRAといった複数の1.5次元輸送コードを用いてITERハイブリッド運転のシミュレーションを行った。平衡配位,加熱電流駆動機器のジオメトリ、熱・粒子輸送モデル等について共通ガイドラインを設けて極力同じ計算条件となるようにしている。世界的に利用されている輸送コードのほとんどが参加したベンチマークは初めてであり、結果の違いについて結論できる段階には至っていないが、各コードにおいて改良すべき点を客観的に評価できることを明らかにした。
