The time behaviour of the thermal conductivity during L → H and H → L transitions in JET

  • 1. Commission of the European Communities, Abingdon (United Kingdom). JET Joint Undertaking

Description

The change in thermal transport across the L → H transition is studied in detail for those JET high performance H-modes which have a very fast transition. It is found that in these pulses the transport changes very rapidly (< 4 msecs) over a very large radial region 0.5 < p < 1, and a very large transport barrier is formed. The reasons for the formation of this barrier are discussed. (author)
