  1. INTEGRATED SCENARIO MODELLING: EUROFUSION Consortium Call for Participation in Work Packages – modelling proposalsI. VOITSEKHOVITCH TF Leader : G. Falchetto Deputies: R. Coelho, D. Coster EFDA CSU Contact Person: D. Kalupin ISM meeting November 6 2013

  2. Call for participation in Work Packages 2014 • JET: - WPJET1: JET Campaigns - WPJET2: Plasma Facing Components - WPJET3: Technological Exploitation of DT Operation - WPJET4: Enhancement 2. ITER Physics: - WPMST1: Medium-Size Tokamak Campaigns - WPSA: Preparation of Exploitation of JT-60SA - WPCD: Code Development for Integrated Modelling 3. Power Plant Physics and Technology 4. Enabling Research 5. Education and Training (post-doc fellowship Programme)

  3. WPJET1: JET Campaigns Main focus in 2014:

  4. WPMST1: • Exploitation of ASDEX Upgrade complementing the work at JET to provide a step-ladder approach for exploitations to ITER and DEMO • Modelling for preparation and interpretation will be an integral part of the WPs to ensure an efficient exploitation of the experiments

  5. WPMST1: Headline 1.1 • Headline 1.1: Increase the margin to achieve high fusion gain on ITER • Study heat, particle and momentum confinement in conventional and improved H-modes and hybrids and the dimensionless scalings towards ITER • Study H-mode and hybrid scaling in regimes with high radiated power fractions • H-mode and hybrid confinement scaling near the density limit (including different isotopes) • Modelling is not mentioned explicitly, but it will be useful • Test scaling of confinement and LH threshold of the improved H-mode in H and D • Develop physics models for the density limit • Develop gas puff technique and related modelling to maximise ICRF power in H-mode independently of the edge conditions

  6. WPMST1: Headline 1.2

  7. WPMST1: scenario modelling may be needed for these tasks ISM/ACT1: NTM simulations with ETS

  8. WPMST1: impurity studies

  9. WPMST1: divertor/SOL modelling

  10. WPMST1: particle transport / fuelling

  11. WPMST1: H&CD, fast ion physics

  12. WPSA: Preparation and exploitation of JT-60SA (G. Giruzzi) Modelling: - scenarios - MHD - turbulence and transport - fast particles - control methods Deadline for replies: November 12 2013

  13. WPCD: Code Development for Integrated Modelling (G. Falchetto) • Linear stability chain (MHD, RWM, ELMs) • Code transport simulator: transport, turbulence, impurities, pellets, neutrals, NTM, H&CD • Coupled feedback controlled free boundary plasma simulator and transport solver • Edge transport simulator Development expertise is requested in the Call. Deadline for repliesNovember 12th Validation and physics studies with ETS  apply via relevant MST1 experiments

  14. Enabling Research Objectives • to implement a programme aimed at promoting fundamental understanding and longer perspective research will be implemented. • Only topics with relevance for fusion research will be funded. Proposals will be evaluated and selected according to the scientific merit of the proposals taking into account the following criteria: a) CV and Track Record of the Principal Investigator and participants in the project, and their commitment to the proposal, b) Importance for Fusion, feasibility and the capability of addressing important challenges, c) Scientific excellence, innovation potential - going beyond the state of the art, d) Adequateness of the resources to meet the proposed goals, e) Collaborative Aspects

  15. Important Dates and Timeline Enabling Research • Deadline for Proposals on 11th November 2013 • Project starting date 1st January 2014 • Final Report submission deadline 31 / 12 / 2014 Minimum Commitment • Principal Investigator (PI) dedication to the Project minimum 0.5 ppy • Collaborators:dedication to the Project minimum 0.2 ppy

  16. ER proposal: Optimisation of fusion performance in advanced scenarios based on theoretical models for thermal, particle and momentum transport • Analysis and understanding of the role of fundamental transport effects in the strongly non-linear systems such as burning plasmas: - based on GLF23, Weiland, TGLF transport models - ExB shear and e stabilisation - parallel velocity shear destabilisation - Coriolis momentum pinch - turbulent equipartition particle pinch Objectives: Implementation of new transport modules may be needed

  17. ER proposal: Optimisation of fusion performance in advanced scenarios based on theoretical models for thermal, particle and momentum transport 2. Application to scenario development (ITER): - Requirements to fuelling, heating and current drive with uncertainties - Minimised impurity (W) accumulation - Optimisation of D-T fraction with available fuelling sources - Turbulence analysis: KBM onset?
