  • 提出了一个驱动托卡马克芯部等离子体极向旋转的新途径:用电子回旋波产生芯部等离子体极向旋转.物理机制如下:在高功率的电子回旋波加热的托卡马克等离子体中,共振局域化现象将产生极向电场从而形成极向外高内低的离子密度分布;这个极向离子的积累可以克服来自磁泵的阻尼而使等离子体极向旋转退稳定.从流体力学方程和漂移动力学方程中,得到了等离子体旋转退稳的判别式.结果表明现有的电子回旋波加热功率水平可以驱动芯部等离子体的极向旋转.

     

    A new approach is presented to produce core plasma poloidal rotation during electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) in Tokamaks. The physical mechanism employed here is as follows:in a Tokamak plasma with high power ECRH, the resonance particle localization causes poloidal electric field, which consequently induce a poloidally asymmetric ion profile. This kind of poloidal ion accumulation would overwhelm the damping of poloidal rotation from the magnetic pumping, and make the plasma spin up poloidally. Based on the fluid equations and the drift kinetic equation, we have derived the criterion of plasma spin up in the collisionless region. It is shown that the core plasma poloidal rotation can be generated by ECRH in the practical rf power level.
