Quasi-linear theory of heat flow and diffusion in a Tokamak

  • 1. Science Applications, Inc., La Jolla, CA (USA). Lab. for Applied Plasma Studies

Description

A formulation of transport theory, including cross-field thermal conductivity, is presented and applied to transport in tokamak due to trapped-particle instabilities, in the quasi-linear stage. Ratios of ion heat conduction, convection, and turbulent heating to electron heat conduction, and ratios of electron heat convection and turbulent heating to electron heat conduction are presented for trapped-electron and trapped-ion modes
