Self-sustained turbulence of current-diffusive ballooning mode and drift wave instabilities

  • 1. Kyoto Univ., Dept. of Nuclear Engineering, Kyoto (Japan)

Description

Starting from two-fluid equations, we derive a set of equations which describes the current diffusive ballooning mode (CDBM) and the ion temperature gradient (ITG) mode. We numerically solve the equations toobtain real frequency, growth-rate and spatial structure of the eigen mode. The magnitude of transport coefficients in a saturated state are evaluated from the marginal stability condition. We report model dependence of ITG and a contribution of compressibility on CDBM.
