高能粒子进动漂移动理学效应对内扭曲模影响的模拟OA
Precessional drift-kinetic effects of energetic particles on internal kink mode in tokamaks
内扭曲模(internal kink mode,IKM)是托卡马克中一种典型的磁流体不稳定性,作为锯齿振荡的主要诱因,其稳定性与高能粒子(energetic particles,EPs)的动理学效应密切相关.本文利用全环几何位形的MARS-F/K程序,基于DEMO平衡重点模拟了EPs进动漂移动理学效应对IKM的影响.结果表明,该动理学效应对IKM起稳定或解稳作用,其强弱取决于壁位置d/a(d为壁与磁轴的径向距离,a为小半径)、EPs与背景粒子磁轴处的压强比值(β)*0、能量比值αT及EPs压强和密度的径向分布等参数.在恒定份额的分布下,d/a和αT较小时动理学效应会轻微解稳IKM;模的动理学增长率随β*0单调变化,β*0=0.5时其峰值位于d/a和αT均最大时.而在非恒定份额的分布下,动理学效应在整个参数(d/a,αT)范围内起稳定作用;αT较大时动理学增长率随β*0呈非单调变化,β*0=0.5时其峰值位于d/a最大但αT最小值时在这两种分布下,该效应激发的模频率幅值约差1个量级,且随αT的变化趋势相反.本研究增进了对EPs动理学效应影响IKM机制的理解,为未来聚变装置中相关不稳定性的分析提供重要参考.
How energetic particles(EPs)affect the internal kink mode(IKM)is a critical question for the stable operation of future burning plasma devices like ITER and the EU DEMO.In this paper,the IKM in tokamak geometry is numerically systematically investigated utilizing the full toroidal magnetohydrodynamic(MHD)code MARS-F and the non-perturbative MHD-kinetic hybrid code MARS-K.Emphasis is placed on the role of kinetic effects arising from the precessional drift motion of trapped EPs.Multiple plasma parameters are scanned including the ideal wall position d/a,the on-axis pressure ratio β*0 and the energy ratio αr between the energetic and thermal particles,as well as the radial profiles of EP density and pressure.The kinetic effect is found to be either stabilizing or destabilizing depending on the EP equilibrium profiles.With the latter being constant fractions of the corresponding thermal particle profiles,the EP kinetic effect mildly destabilizes the IKM at low d/a and αT.The mode growth rate monotonically increases with β*0,peaking at maximum d/a and αT for β*0=0.5.For radially distributed profiles for the EP density and pressure fractions,however,the effect is stabilizing throughout the parameter spaces in(d/a,αT).The enhanced stabilizing effect comes from the more peaked radial profiles for the EP density and pressure,which increases the magnitude of the resonance operator(given in Eq.(8))by increasing the diamagnetic frequency of the EPs.At large αT,the mode growth rate non-monotonically depends on β*0,reaching the peak value at maximum d/a but minimum αT for β*0=0.5.This non-monotonic behavior stems from the fact that a higher mode frequency is excited by precessional drift resonance of trapped EPs for radially distributed profiles,while the mode frequency appears in both the numerator and denominator of the resonance operator.Significant quantitative differences are also computed,over the entire parameter space,between the aforementioned two profile models for EPs.Comparative analysis shows approximately one order of magnitude difference in the computed mode frequency,and even sign reversal,between the two EP profile models with increasing αT.With the radial profiles of EP density and pressure more representative of the experimentally conditions,the mode frequency excited by EPs reaches an amplitude on the order of 10-2,corresponding to real frequencies of several to tens of kHz.This result aligns well with experimental and numerical observations from multiple tokamaks,including DⅢ-D,EAST,and HL-2A.The amplitude increases monotonically with EP energy,further supporting the consistency with these observations.In experiments,the radial profiles of EP pressure and density can serve as key control parameters.By tailoring the deposition profile of auxiliary heating,the radial distribution of EPs can be actively manipulated,thereby enabling effective control of sawtooth oscillations.These results enhance understanding of the EP kinetic effects on IKM and provide physics insight for analyzing associated instabilities in future fusion devices.
