MP #424: Initial tests of disruption mitigation using a gas jet

Session leader: R. Granetz (possibly also Dennis Whyte via remote access)
Physics operator: E. Marmar

NO overnight ECDC, but bake at 60 C.

Run begins at 09:00 and ends at 17:00.

Power systems as on 1050526026 (1.0 MA, 5.4 T, SNL fiducial)

A-coil configuration: normal [+Dtop -Dbot -Jtop +Jbot] and enabled.

Gas Setup:
fill B-Top with 6 psi D2 Hybrid enabled (PG4)
fill B-side lower with 1 psi Ar Hybrid DISABLED (PG1)
leave B-side upper with whatever Hybrid disabled
fill B-main (C-side) with 30 psi D2 Hybrid enabled (PG3)
NINJA not used today

Torvac setup: unnecessary diagnostic (ECE, VUV) gate valves should be kept
closed on all gas jet shots.

Enable the following gate valves, assuming no vacuum problems:
Z-bolo shutters

Necessary diagnostics:
Fast PSI camera on B-horizontal, starting at t=0.800 s, He+ filter
Thomson scattering, with 2 lasers set to fire about 2 ms apart
Bolometry
Halo current Rogowskis

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ICRF Setup: All transmitters in run on at 08:30.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run plan: Start with a standard 1 MA fiducial with no gas jet, just as
a baseline. Shot 1050526026 is good, but raise nl_04 to 1e20 m-2.
Begin the day with no RF power.

First few shots:
Fire 1 ms helium gas jet at t=0.800 s. Plenum pressure = 70 bar.
Observe camera image, bolometry, halo currents, Te profiles.
Optimize diagnostic timings.

If halo currents are much higher than normal (200 kA at these
parameters), drop Ip to 0.8 MA. Likewise if plasma recovery is a
problem.

During the day:
- Vary gas jet pulse length and gas jet plenum pressure.
- Turn on RF heating to change plasma pressure
- Change PSI filter to He0, and perhaps no filter
- Change to neon (late in the day, since the neon bottle that we
have only as 35 bar, which is questionable for sealing the fast
valve).

At some point in the day:
Cause one or two disruptions without the gas jet by turning off the
ZCUR feedback, for comparison

Run summary for Friday 03 June 2005:

MP #424: Initial tests of disruption mitigation using a gas jet

Session leader: R. Granetz, and D. Whyte via remote access
Physics operator: E. Marmar

This was a very successful run. The gas jet hardware worked well right
from the first shot. We tried two gases (He and Ne), a range of pulse
lengths (1-5 ms), and ohmic (55 kJ) and RF plasmas (80-110 kJ). The gas
jet reliably disrupted the plasma with very good reproducibility. Timing
jitter was only about 0.5 ms, which made it easier to optimize the timing
of the Thomson system and the fast camera imaging. The TS gave good
temporal information on the Te profiles which should be very useful for the
NIMROD modeling. The camera captured good sequences in He0, He+, and Ne0
light. Helium gas jets did not change the usual disruption timescales, nor
did it reduce halo currents. Neon (at only 49 bar) did speed up the
quench, and reduced the halo currents. We also have lots of bolometry and
AXUV profiles data to look at. It's clear that there are lots of things we
still need to try in future runs (full pressure neon and argon, H-mode
plasmas with higher Wth, etcetera). Finally, we showed unequivocably that
gas jet mitigation did not have a negative impact on disruption
recovery...we had no fizzles today.

MP #424: Initial tests of disruption mitigation using a gas jet

Session leader: R. Granetz (with Dennis Whyte via remote access from the Netherlands)
Physics operator: E. Marmar

NO overnight ECDC, but bake at 60 C.

Run begins at 09:00 and ends at 17:00.

Power systems as on 1050526026 (1.0 MA, 5.4 T, SNL fiducial)

A-coil configuration: normal [+Dtop -Dbot -Jtop +Jbot] and enabled.

From the physop point of view this was an excellent day. The startup was robust. Some shots hesitated on current rise and had early hards.
The only segment 1 pcs change all day was to decrease the prepuff by 2 msec for shot 4, which followed the first disruption. All plasma shots from #3 on had 1 MA disruptions. The only one that was not by design was on shot 9, which died early after a natural injection.
Shots 4 and 5 were programmed vde disruptions, with zcur gains set to 0 after 0.8 seconds. Shot 4 went up, shot 5 went down. Both were programmed to move down before the gains went off: shot 4 about 2 cm, shot 5 about 3.5 cm.

The gas jet experiments went very well, with both helium and neon being tested. See the session leader summary for details. Many of the shots had 2 to 3 MW of RF, with Wmhd up to nearly 115 kJ just before the disruptions.

The main non-mp related delay came around 4:15 pm, when some water leaked from a DNB system, also causing the torvac turbos to shut down because of the low water flow. This was between shots 26 and 27.
Shot 27 was a power supply dud; it appeared there was a computer network problem around the time we went into pulse, and most supplies did not fire. With no changes, shot 28, the last of the day, went through normally.

Scorecard:
Plasmas 27
Fizzles 0
Power supply dud 1

Total cycles 28

Session Leader Comments
Jun 3 2005 09:13:31:203AM1050603001Robert GranetzPlasma. Good shot. 1 MA, 5.4 T fiducial. nl_04=1e20 m-2. Ohmic.

Next shot: 1 ms gas jet, helium, 70 bar, t=0.800 s.

Jun 3 2005 09:26:27:860AM1050603002Robert GranetzPlasma. Good shot. No disruption. I think we fired...there was a small density increase at t=0.8 s.
The fast pressure transducer says that we got some gas in.

Plenum gas: He
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 73
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 72
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 1

Next shot: 1.5 ms pulse, 72 bar.
Jun 3 2005 09:59:19:423AM1050603003Robert GranetzPlasma. Success! Good shot. Disruption started at t=0.809 s. Quench was not particularly
fast. Plasma still went down. I_halo_lower=160 kA. Got some good H+ images. One Thomson point pair
was at t=0.810 s, which is during the disruption, but there's too much background for the automatic
analysis program. It may be possible to recover some information with some post-processing.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms):
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 72
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 57
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 1

Next shot: VDE disruption by programming feedback gain off in ZCUR at t=0.8 s.
NO GAS JET on next shot.
Jun 3 2005 10:14:25:860AM1050603004Robert GranetzPlasma. Force VDE disruption started at t=0.836 s, but it went up.


Next shot: tweak the ZCUR programming to try and get a downward-going VDE.
NO GAS JET.
Jun 3 2005 10:22:36:237AM1050603005Robert GranetzPlasma. Successfully forced VDE downwards...good for comparison to gas-jet-induced
disruptions. I_halo_lower=160 kA (same as shot 3 gas jet disruption), but not
toroidally symmetric, unlike the shot 3 thermal quench disruption.

Next shot: 1.3 ms gas jet, 70 bar, helium.
Jun 3 2005 10:48:21:160AM1050603006Robert GranetzPlasma. Success again. Good shot. Disruption started at t=0.809 s again...very
good reproducibility Quench was similar to earlier shot. I_halo_lower=183 ka,
not as toroidally symmetric as before. TCI and TS gate valves stayed open.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat. Jim Terry turned down the camera gain.
Jun 3 2005 10:49:48:847AM1050603006Robert GranetzThe AXUV array is giving useful data, although some of the core channels
saturate during part of the disruption.
Jun 3 2005 11:13:21:503AM1050603007Robert GranetzPlasma. Good shot. Disruption started at t=0.809 s. Quench was
a litle slower than before. I_halo_lower=197 kA.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 50
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat. Plenum has been topped off.
Jun 3 2005 11:11:23:690AM1050603008Robert GranetzPlasma. Good shot. Disruption started at t=0.8085 s. Very similar to preceding
shot.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat.
Jun 3 2005 11:36:34:440AM1050603009Robert GranetzPlasma. Disrupted, but at t=0.62 s, well before the gas jet fired. Went down. This
could be used as another non-gas-jet disruption baseline shot.

Next shot: repeat. Still ohmic. JT is trying to get an image with the ND filter in.
Plenum has been topped off.
Jun 3 2005 11:52:17:813AM1050603010Robert GranetzPlasma. Good disruption shot. Fast camera images are no longer saturated. At Dennis's
suggestion, Bruce has switch Chromex to look at 486 He+ line to monitor helium retention.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

entire disruption sequence on one shot.
Jun 3 2005 11:58:32:393AM1050603011Robert GranetzPlasma. Good disruption shot. Very reproducible current quenches and halo currents.
JT got a full sequence of images (300 microsecond spacing, 28 images).

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: Turn on the RF, J-port only, 2.5 MW, starting at t=0.65 s.
Jun 3 2005 12:01:24:347PM1050603011Robert GranetzBruce reports the following about shot-to-shot helium retention:

"Getting 400 counts or so on many channels (peak- shot 11 before disruption).
Yesterday ~0. But, when we have done He puffing in the past for diagnostic
purposes, the brightness was more like 1e3 and higher. So this is lower.
Note that the Zeff is ~ 1."
Jun 3 2005 12:12:07:033PM1050603012Robert GranetzPlasma. Good disruption shot. This one had 2.5 MW of RF. Wth is about 80 kJ on
this shot (compared to 55 kJ on earlier ohmic shots). Fast camera mis-triggered...
didn't get the disruption.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

sequence this time (He+ filter)

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat for the camera (He0).
Jun 3 2005 01:05:22:470PM1050603015Robert GranetzPlasma. Good disruption shot. Very reproducible current quenches and halo
currents. The fast camera triggered properly, but it was satured.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat with different ND filter. More RF if possible.
Jun 3 2005 01:21:37:300PM1050603016Robert GranetzPlasma. Good disruption shot. Getting better on the ND filter for the fast camera.

Jun 3 2005 02:03:32:347PM1050603018Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Wth=100 kJ. We tried to get ECE GPC and Amanda says it worked.
PRF=2.5 MW, clean pulse.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: repeat, no GPC.
Jun 3 2005 02:17:52:630PM1050603019Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Wth=100 kJ.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 1.3
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 62
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 12

Next shot: Increase jet pulse length to 2.0 ms. This will trip every gate valve on
the machine. We want to see if we can speed up the current quench.
Jun 3 2005 03:11:34:440PM1050603020Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. But the 2.0 ms pulse only put in a little more gas,
and the disruption current quench wasn't any different, nor was the halo current.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 57
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 14

Next shot: increase gas jet pulse to 3.0 ms.
Jun 3 2005 03:11:52:940PM1050603020Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. But the 2.0 ms pulse only put in a little more gas,
and the disruption current quench wasn't any different, nor was the halo current.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 57
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 14

Next shot: increase gas jet pulse to 3.0 ms.
Jun 3 2005 03:15:20:020PM1050603021Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Marginally more gas.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 3.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 57
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 14

Next shot: 5 ms pulse.
Jun 3 2005 03:14:16:003PM1050603022Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Still no more gas. We think the GV2 and maybe the GV1 valves
are changing state during the discharge. Joe Bosco is looking at the PLC logic.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 5.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 55
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 19

Next shot: Joe Bosco increase a pressure limit on our CG gauge in the PLC ladder logic.
Jun 3 2005 03:13:48:533PM1050603023Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot.

Plenum gas: He
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 74
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 58
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 16

Next shot: install the neon bottle
Jun 3 2005 03:38:08:270PM1050603024Robert GranetzJim has put a filter for neutral neon in the camera system, starting with
this shot.
Jun 3 2005 03:54:04:923PM1050603024Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Neon gas jet. The current quench starts later
(since neon is slower), but it is definitely a quicker quench. And the halo current
is somewhat less (143 kA). We'll need to adjust the TS timing.

Plenum gas: Neon
Pulse length (ms): 1.5
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 48
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 43
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 5

Next shot: increase pulse length to 2.0 ms, and move the start of the gas jet
earlier by 1.7 ms so that the TS point fixed at t=0.810 s is just
after the beginning of the current quench.
Jun 3 2005 04:06:59:690PM1050603025Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. 100 kJ. Good camera sequence. The start of the
quench did indeed move earlier.

Plenum gas: Neon
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 48
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 43
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 5

Next shot: repeat, change TS timing and camera timing.
Jun 3 2005 04:21:43:380PM1050603026Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. Camera mis-triggered. I_halo_lower=135 kA.

Plenum gas: Neon
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 48
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 43
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 5

Next shot: Repeat, tweak camera and TS timings.
Jun 3 2005 05:04:54:753PM1050603028Robert GranetzPlasma. Good RF disruption shot. But the fast camera still didn't trigger at the correct
time.

Plenum gas: Neon
Pulse length (ms): 2.0
Plenum pre -pulse pressure (bar): 49
Plenum post-pulse pressure (bar): 43
Plenum change in pressure (bar): 6

End of run. Great day.
