AbstractAbstract
[en] We have employed a modified version of the LLNL Bounce-average Fokker-Planck code to model neutral beam-produced sloshing-ion equilibria in the TARA endplugs. The questions we have addressed concern the effect of deuterium beam operation as opposed to hydrogen operation, and the advantage of using full-energy beams rather than the usual three-component beams. We find that, for the expected base case TARA operating parameters, a 40% savings in required beam power is attained by using deuterium beams rather than hydrogen beams, and that the use of full-energy beams results in an additional 26% power savings for these parameters. For higher plasma temperatures the use of full-energy beams becomes significantly advantagous. We have also investigated the equilibria of two possible alternate mirror configurations for the TARA endplugs, believed to be more stable to trapped particle modes, and report those results here
