AbstractAbstract
[en] We present a review of MHD stability issues in reversed shear configurations. This work will focus on identifying issues relevant to existing and proposed devices. The aim is to provide a framework for assessing the value of different designs. We will use available experimental data to support our conclusions where it is possible

AbstractAbstract
[en] A recent analysis of plasma stability based on modifications of the extended energy principle for magnetohydrodynamic stability led to conclusions that are too optimistic. The original interpretation of this principle is indeed applicable. The present analysis demonstrates explicitly the fallacy of using the wrong functional for δW in the extended energy principle. It then shows that the original energy principle functional δWB is also obtained for a model in which a surface mass is incorporated to provide pressure balance. This work therefore indicates, but does not prove, that the eigenfunctions that are obtained from a minimization of the extended energy principle with the proper kinetic energy norm provide a good representation of what would be achieved with an exact treatment

AbstractAbstract
[en] The present paper describes the improvements made to the conversion software for ANSYS APDL 2 FLUENT MHD Magnetic File which is able to extract the data from ANSYS APDL file and write down a file containing the magnetic field data in FLUENT magneto hydro dynamics (MHD) format. The MHD module has some features for the uniform and non uniform magnetic field but it is limited for sinusoidal or pulsed, square wave, having a fixed duty cycle of 50%. The present software, ANSYS APDL 2 FLUENT MHD Magnetic File, suffered major modifications in comparison with the last one. The most important improvement consists in a new graphical interface, which has 3D graphical interface for the input file but also for the output file. Another improvement has been made for processing time, the new version is two times faster comparing with the old one. (authors)

AbstractAbstract
[en] Experiments on the maximum attainable beta values of ASDEX discharges show that the limits for this parameter lie in the range of theoretical predictions. In a previous publication we have attempted to theoretically identify the corresponding instabilities. While no significant correlation to global plasma instabilities could be found, the two-dimensional MHD equilibria calculated on the basis of ASDEX experimental parameters turned out to be close to the marginal ideal ballooning limit. In the present work we extend this investigation to resistive ballooning modes. Separatrix bounded as well as limiter controlled plasma equilibria are considered. Because of the small aspect-ratio of ASDEX (A ≅ 4) all equilibrium as well as stability calculations are performed in full toroidal geometry. After the formulation of a system of four equations describing the resistive evolution of velocity and magnetic fields in the high-m stability limit in coordinate-invariant form and its Fourier approximation in the neighbourhood of a localization field line, we solve the resulting quasi-mode equations applying methods of finite-element discretization. We find complex growth rates γ with positive real part for values of the toroidal mode number n below 100. Calculated values of Re{γ} ≤ 10-3/τA s-1 (with τA being the Alfven time) are small and therefore in agreement with the experimentally observed non-disruptive behaviour at the βp- limit. Thus we believe that the characteristic signatures which govern ASDEX high-βp discharges can be explained by resistive ballooning modes. (orig.)

AbstractAbstract
[en] The stability of toroidal plasmas is often described by approximate MHD equations for a small number of scalar functions (reduced MHD equations). We propose a general representation of toroidal MHD in terms of stream-functions and potentials, which facilitates the physical interpretation of various terms and therefore is well suited for deriving different types of reduced equations. We qualitatively discuss stationary plasma states bifurcating from a given equilibrium, and we treat the particular case of a MHD-unstable cylindrical equilibrium

AbstractAbstract
[en] A nonaxisymmetric stable magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium within a prolate cylindrical conducting boundary has been produced experimentally. It has m=1 azimuthal symmetry, helical distortion, and flat λ profile, all in agreement with the computed magnetically relaxed minimum magnetic energy Taylor state. Despite varied initial conditions determined by two helicity injectors on the device, this same equilibrium consistently emerges as the final state. These results therefore describe a new example of self-organization in an MHD plasma.

AbstractAbstract
[en] In an earlier publication, it was shown that toroidal resistive MHD equilibria, for spatially uniform resistivity and under a standard set of assumed symmetries, do not exist. The difficulties are associated with the non-vanishing nature of curl (j x B), and disappear in the open-quotes straight cylinderclose quotes limit. Here, we inquire into whether there exist spatial dependences for the (scalar) electrical resistivity which permit axisymmetric, toroidal, zero-flow resistive steady states to exist. The question is answered in the affirmative. A differential equation derived from Ohm's law replaces the Grad-Shafranov description, and the pressure is derived from the Laplace equation obtained from taking the divergence of the equation of motion. There are some novel features to the states that result. For example, the resistivity required is not a open-quotes flux functionclose quotes -- i.e., it is not constant on a magnetic surface, thus suggesting that the temperature will not be either
