Times Cited Count:40 Percentile:74.93(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)Improvement of the scaling of H-mode edge pedestal pressure for a Type-I ELM regime based on a simple analytical formula is achieved by introducing shaping factors into the scaling. The physics basis of these shaping factors is an enhancement of the critical pressure gradient by the magnetic well. With increasing the magnetic well, a high toroidal mode number ideal ballooning mode and peeling mode decouple and critical gradient is determined by intermediate mode number, which results in significant enhancement of the critical pressure gradient. The improved scaling can reproduce the pedestal pressure reasonably well for ASDEX-U, JET, DIII-D and JT-60U Type-I ELmy data archived in the ITER pedestal database.

The main purpose of JT-60U project is to make contribution to establishment of scientific basis of ITER and the demo tokamak reactor. Our ultimate goal is to achieve and sustain high integrated performance, namely high beta, high confinement, high bootstrap current fraction, full non-inductive current drive and heat/particle control, in a reactor-relevant regime. Toward this goal, we have developed weak magnetic shear ("high mode") and reversed magnetic shear plasmas. In both regimes, the internal transport barrier (ITB) and the edge pedestal are obtained simultaneously. As a large-sized tokamak equipped with a variety of devices for heating, current drive and profile control, JT-60U has high ability to approach the conditions required in reactors (ITER or demo): low values of normalized Larmor radius and collisionality, high toroidal field, high temperature with TeTi, small central fueling, small ELM activities, etc. This paper reviews recent JT-60U results with the emphasis on the projection to the reactor-relevant regime.
