Study of impurity effects on CFETR steady-state scenario by self-consistent integrated modeling

Abstract: Impurity effects on fusion performance of China fusion engineering test reactor (CFETR) due to extrinsic seeding are investigated. An integrated 1.5D modeling workflow evolves plasma equilibrium and all transport channels to steady state. The one modeling framework for integrated tasks framework is used to couple the transport solver, MHD equilibrium solver, and source and sink calculations. A selfconsistent impurity profile constructed using a steadystate background plasma, which satisfies quasineutrality and… Show more

“…For GP2, the neon impurity penetration into the separatrix is a little higher than that for GP3, which shows a slightly larger neon ions density inside the separatrix in figure 4(c). The effective ion charge number (Z eff ) is an important parameter to estimate the impurity concentration level, which has a strong impact on the fusion performance according to the core modelling [40,41]. The increase in Z eff in the core region can cause an increased ohmic flux consumption that should be low enough to sustain a long burning flat-top phase for CFETR [41].…”

“…A similar steady-state loop has been described in [20,21]; here we extend that workflow to deal with the effects of fuel dilution and radiation loss caused by W on plasma performance for the first time. An impurity loop was first introduced in [22] but that paper, which focused on intermediate charge impurities such as Ar, did not include neoclassical effect on the impurity profile reconstruction. Neoclassical effect could be very important for the transport of heavy impurities, thus it needs to be fully considered.…”
