Real-time plasma state monitoring and supervisory control on TCV
(2019) Blanken, T. C.; Felici, F.; Galperti, C.; Kong, M.; Kirneva, N.; Кирнева, Наталья Александровна
In ITER and DEMO, various control objectives related to plasma control must be simultaneously achieved by the plasma control system (PCS), in both normal operation as well as off-normal conditions. The PCS must act on off-normal events and deviations from the target scenario, since certain sequences (chains) of events can precede disruptions. It is important that these decisions are made while maintaining a coherent prioritization between the real-time control tasks to ensure high-performance operation. In this paper, a generic architecture for task-based integrated plasma control is proposed. The architecture is characterized by the separation of state estimation, event detection, decisions and task execution among different algorithms, with standardized signal interfaces. Central to the architecture are a plasma state monitor and supervisory controller. In the plasma state monitor, discrete events in the continuous-valued plasma state arc modeled using finite state machines. This provides a high-level representation of the plasma state. The supervisory controller coordinates the execution of multiple plasma control tasks by assigning task priorities, based on the finite states of the plasma and the pulse schedule. These algorithms were implemented on the TCV digital control system and integrated with actuator resource management and existing state estimation algorithms and controllers. The plasma state monitor on TCV can track a multitude of plasma events, related to plasma current, rotating and locked neoclassical tearing modes, and position displacements. In TCV experiments on simultaneous control of plasma pressure, safety factor profile and NTMs using electron cyclotron heating (ECI I) and current drive (ECCD), the supervisory controller assigns priorities to the relevant control tasks. The tasks are then executed by feedback controllers and actuator allocation management. This work forms a significant step forward in the ongoing integration of control capabilities in experiments on TCV, in support of tokamak reactor operation.

On the Choice of Electron Cyclotron Heating Frequency for T-15MD Tokamak
(2021) Kislov, D. A.; Roy, I. N.; Kirneva, N. A.; Кирнева, Наталья Александровна
© 2021, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Abstract: Electron cyclotron heating is one of the methods of additional plasma heating and noninductive current drive in the T-15MD tokamak. One to eight gyrotrons with a total power up to 7 MW will be used. The frequency of the microwave used depends on the parameters of the experimental scenarios in which the heating will be used and on the physical tasks for which it is intended. This article provides justification for the choice of the gyrotron frequency f1 ≅ 82.6 GHz for the start-up phase and for the first plasma experiments and considers the possibility of using this frequency at the stage of full-scale experiments. In order to provide flexibility of the Т-15MD ECH system, it is proposed to consider the possibility of the development of a gyrotron complex based on two-frequency gyrotrons with f1 ~ 82.6 GHz and f2 in the range of ~102–110 GHz.

Energy Confinement in Self-Organized Tokamak Plasma (without Transport Barriers)
(2020) Razumova, K. A.; Dremin, M. M.; Kasyanova, N. V.; Klyuchnikov, L. A.; Kirneva, N. A.; Кирнева, Наталья Александровна
© 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.Abstract—: The phenomenon of improved energy confinement during radiative cooling at the plasma edge was studied experimentally in the T-10 tokamak. It was shown that the effect is independent on the kind of radiating gas. No substantial differences were observed using Ne, which radiates at two-thirds of the plasma radius, or He, which radiates at the very edge. This phenomenon is explained in frames of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. In a self-organized plasma, the energy balance is described by a Smoluchowski-type equation, where the plasma thermal conductivity and its functional dependence on the intensity of the heat flux, perturbing the pressure profile, is determined from experiment.

On the selection of electron-cyclotron heating frequency for T-15md tokamak

Physics research on the TCV tokamak facility: from conventional to alternative scenarios and beyond
(2019) Coda, S.; Agostini, M.; Albanese, R.; Alberti, S.; Kirneva, N.; Кирнева, Наталья Александровна
The research program of the TCV tokamak ranges from conventional to advanced-tokamak scenarios and alternative divertor configurations, to exploratory plasmas driven by theoretical insight, exploiting the device's unique shaping capabilities. Disruption avoidance by real-time locked mode prevention or unlocking with electron-cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) was thoroughly documented, using magnetic and radiation triggers. Runaway generation with high-Z noble-gas injection and runaway dissipation by subsequent Ne or Ar injection were studied for model validation. The new 1 MW neutral beam injector has expanded the parameter range, now encompassing ELMy H-modes in an ITER-like shape and nearly noninductive II-mode discharges sustained by electron cyclotron and neutral beam current drive. In the H-mode, the pedestal pressure increases modestly with nitrogen seeding while fueling moves the density pedestal outwards, but the plasma stored energy is largely uncorrelated to either seeding or fueling. High fueling at high triangularity is key to accessing the attractive small edge-localized mode (type-II) regime. Turbulence is reduced in the core at negative triangularity, consistent with increased confinement and in accord with global gyrokinetic simulations. The geodesic acoustic mode, possibly coupled with avalanche events, has been linked with particle flow to the wall in diverted plasmas. Detachment, scrape-off layer transport, and turbulence were studied in L- and H-modes in both standard and alternative configurations (snowflake, super-X, and beyond). The detachment process is caused by power `starvation' reducing the ionization source, with volume recombination playing only a minor role. Partial detachment in the H-mode is obtained with impurity seeding and has shown little dependence on flux expansion in standard single-null geometry. In the attached 1,-mode phase, increasing the outer connection length reduces the in-out heat-flow asymmetry. A doublet plasma, featuring an internal X-point, was achieved successfully, and a transport barrier was observed in the mantle just outside the internal separatrix. In the near future variableconfiguration baffles and possibly divertor ptunping will be introduced to investigate the effect of divertor closure on exhaust and performance, and 3.5 MW ECR and 1 MW neutral beam injection heating will be added.

A Variable Structure Control Scheme Proposal for the Tokamak a Configuration Variable
(2019) Marco, Aitor; Garrido, Aitor J.; Coda, Stefano; Garrido, Izaskun; Kirneva, N.; Кирнева, Наталья Александровна
Fusion power is the most significant prospects in the long-term future of energy in the sense that it composes a potentially clean, cheap, and unlimited power source that would substitute the widespread traditional nonrenewable energies, reducing the geographical dependence on their sources as well as avoiding collateral environmental impacts. Although the nuclear fusion research started in the earlier part of 20th century and the fusion reactors have been developed since the 1950s, the fusion reaction processes achieved have not yet obtained net power, since the generated plasma requires more energy to achieve and remain in necessary particular pressure and temperature conditions than the produced profitable energy. For this purpose, the plasma has to be confined inside a vacuum vessel, as it is the case of the Tokamak reactor, which consists of a device that generates magnetic fields within a toroidal chamber, being one of the most promising solutions nowadays. However, the Tokamak reactors still have several issues such as the presence of plasma instabilities that provokes a decay of the fusion reaction and, consequently, a reduction in the pulse duration. In this sense, since long pulse reactions are the key to produce net power, the use of robust and fast controllers arises as a useful tool to deal with the unpredictability and the small time constant of the plasma behavior. In this context, this article focuses on the application of robust control laws to improve the controllability of the plasma current, a crucial parameter during the plasma heating and confinement processes. In particular, a variable structure control scheme based on sliding surfaces, namely, a sliding mode controller (SMC) is presented and applied to the plasma current control problem. In order to test the validity and goodness of the proposed controller, its behavior is compared to that of the traditional PID schemes applied in these systems, using the RZIp model for the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) reactor. The obtained results are very promising, leading to consider this controller as a strong candidate to enhance the performance of the PID-based controllers usually employed in this kind of systems.
