MP 462 - Dust Studies. SL Plan for 1070426: 2nd half of day

During this run we will optimize the Dust Injector. After
optimization we will do a density scan and collect data on the flow of
dust in the plasma SOL..

Diagnostics Needed:
Div2 camera filtered to view 532nm light
Dust Injection system
NINJA puffing system
Scanning probes for edge measurements (desired)
Spectroscopic monitoring of boron lines (desired)


Start with LSN plasma (shot 1070404026). nl=1E20 m^-2

Begin with NINJA pressure at 5 psi D2 and all capillaries off besides 'Duster'.

Set NINJA puff to start at 0.7s and go for 0.15s

Between shots adjust length of puff, trigger time and NINJA pressure
until a successful shot is achieved. A successful shot is one in
which particles are seen in the DIV2 camera and one in which the plasma
is negligibly perturbed by the puff. If after 4 plasma shots we do
not have a successful shot because no particles are seen, attempt a
puff into gas with no plasma or magnetic fields.

After a successful shot is achieved begin a density scan, scanning
from nl = 0.5E20 m^-2 to nl = 2.0E20 m^-2 in steps of 0.5E20 m^-2.
Take two shots at each density for a total of 8 shots.


Experimental Plan:
Shots 1-5: Optimize Dust Injector
Shots 6-12: Density Scan

If more shots remain we may wish to get data under USN
conditions (start with shot 1070404030)

Notes:
To run dust injector system, do the following between shots:

Open gate valve. (red on PLC screen)
Adjust boron shaker parameters (if desired)
Shake boron dust (mdstcl @/home/granetz/dust/dust_shaker.tcl)
Adjust ninja puff parameters (if desired)
Close gate valve (this must be done prior to the shot)

Engineering setup for Thursday 26 April 2007

MP 473: LH initial operation (1/2 day)
MP 462: Dust studies (1/2 day)

Session leaders: R. Wilson (MP 473), A. Bader (MP 462)
Physics operator: R. Granetz

ECDC overnight in D2, pressure=2e-4 Torr.  Rmin/Rdwell/Rmax = 44/45/103 cm.
Bake at 60 C.

The run will start at 09:00 and end at 17:00.

Power systems as on 1070411009.

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     as is           Hybrid DISABLED (PG2)   
   fill B-main (C-side)  with 40 psi D2  Hybrid enabled  (PG3)
   fill NINJA            with  5 psi D2  DISABLED

Enable the following gate valves and shutters, assuming no vacuum problems:
  ECE, VUV, Z-bolo shutters
 
Torvac setup: Gate valves open during pulse.

Special diagnostics: Hard x-ray camera, DNB, core & edge TS (even if
  uncalibrated), DIV2 camera (for dust studies), scanning probes (for dust
  studies), spectroscopic monitoring of boron lines (desirable).

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LH Setup: ready to operate during the 1st half of the day.

Dust injector setup: ready to operate during the 2nd half of the day.

ICRF Setup: J-port ready to go for the 1st half of the day.
  
DNB: desired for LH 1/2-day.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run plan:

  For the LH portion, run typical plasmas (start with 1070411009, possibly
  adjusting the density) and investigate the arcing problem in one of the
  LH waveguides.  There will probably also be a couple of shots with gas
  and fields only.  Some ICRF from J-port may be desired in the latter
  portion of this 1/2-day run.

  For the dust portion, run typical LSN plasmas (start with 1070404026).  Inject
  dust and observe images on DIV2 camera.  Adjust NINJA gas pressure, pulse
  length, trigger time, and dust shaker settings to optimize dust
  observations without disrupting plasma.  When optimized, do a density
  scan to see if dust motion depends on friction force.  At some point in
  this 1/2-day run some gas-only shots may be requested (no fields).  We may
  also try an upper null shot (1070404030) if time allows.

During the first part of the day we performed several LHCD tasks.

First we explored the efficacy of new CPS settings that hopefully will prevent destruction of the number 23 pressure window. We were able to operate at co -90 phasing but were right on the edge of tripping on intrinsic reflection on columns 5&6 and columns 13&14. We attempted to adjust the phase setting for klystron 3 (feeding 5&6) to see if a phase calibration error might be responsible for the high intrinsic reflection. We ran a pulse with three 0.133 s sections at the nominal and ±20 degree phase. It was found that the adjusted phases were worse and we were probably at the best point already

Then we tried to run the power modulation waveform that would be needed for the 4/27 experiments. This waveform had been run into dummy loads but not into plasma. After a couple of minor adjustments operation into plasma was achieved.

Then we continued out study of LH + ICRF operation. We ran with J-port at 1.5 MW and pulses at 45, 60 and 90 degree co LH. The 60 degree pulses had the best match and with a small outer gap the reflection was low enough so that on 4/27 we will try running long pulses at higher powerat 60 degrees with the ICRF.

We tried E-port antenna and saw higher relection but not as bad as previously with D-port. In both cases the probes indicate a large reduction in density at the coupler for the top probes with less on the middle. For the lower probes E-port showed a large reduction and J-port did not.

SL summary for second half of run 1070426 MP#462 Dust Studies.

There were only 3 plasma shots (data acquisition and power supply failure took up much of the run time)

The first shot (1060426018) disrupted. There was a massive injection of boron visible on the Div2 camera. However, there was no density rise prior to the disruption, nor where there significant increases in radiation from boron lines. While it is almost definite that the boron injector disrupted the plasma the reason it did so is not so clear.

This shot was followed by 3 fizzles with a long delay in between fizzles 2 and 3.

We had a plasma shot with no dust puff (1060426023)

The following two shots (24, 25) had dust injections but at lower pressure in the Ninja and signifcantly lower boron particles than in shot 18. Both shots did not perturb the plasma. Shot 25 disrupted due to a pellet injection.

The interesting result form these shots are that the particles seem to have extended paths in the radial direction. This is different from expectations that particles would have a strong toroidal flow in the SOL.

So far we have yet to complete the optimization of the dust injector. We hopefully will attempt to puff into vacuum for a couple shots before our next run.

Run summary for Thursday 26 April 2007

MP 473: LH initial operation (1/2 day)
MP 462: Dust studies (1/2 day)

Session leaders: R. Wilson (MP 473), A. Bader (MP 462)
Physics operator: R. Granetz

The first half of the run (shots 1-17) was for Lower Hybrid studies, and it
went very smoothly as far as plasma operation was concerned.  The only
problems were on shot 7, on which the TF didn't fire, and shot 15, which
was a no-power shot because a breaker pulled out in INIT.  See Randy's
summary for physics results.

The second half of the run was devoted to dust injection studies.  On the
first shot, 1070426018, the dust injection worked a little too well, and we
disrupted the plasma.  This was followed by two fizzles.  Then we ran into
a long delay because of IGOR problems, and a faulty cooling fan on one of
the EF1 power supplies.  After about two hours we finally started plasma
operation again with a fizzle on shot 22.  But shots 23, 24, and 25 all had
plasma, as well as dust injection (with much less dust injected, on
purpose).  The DIV2 images showed dust 'flowing' down the outer divertor
shelf, and Aaron has some good stuff to analyze.

Scorecard: 19 plasmas
            2 duds (power supplies failed)
            3 fizzles
            0 power supply tests

Physics Operator Comments
Apr 26 2007 07:41:57:297AMRobert GranetzI had the NINJA plenum pressure increased to 10 psi (abs) of D2 (instead of the
5 psi originally requested). This is because on the test stand we used
5 psi on the tank gauge, which actually is 20 psi absolute. So I thought
that 5 psi (abs) might be a little too low.
Apr 26 2007 07:42:59:203AMRobert GranetzShot 1070411009 loaded (seg 2 active), and segment 1 loaded from 1070425014
(last plasma shot from yesterday).
Apr 26 2007 07:47:28:953AMRobert GranetzDNB is ready and set to fire into shot 1.
Apr 26 2007 07:50:03:877AMRobert GranetzI opened the hand (ball) valve prior to the run. There was no change
in torus pressure, and it doesn't change when I close the shaker
gate valve. I've left that gate valve open.

Apr 26 2007 09:05:56:267AM1070426001Robert GranetzShot 01 -- Plasma, disrupted early, at t=0.42 s. No obvious cause.

Next shot: no changes.
Apr 26 2007 09:23:59:803AM1070426002Robert GranetzShot 02 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot.

Next shot: increase nl_04 from 0.6 to 0.7e20 m-2
Apr 26 2007 09:37:06:137AM1070426003Robert GranetzShot 03 -- Plasma. Disrupted at t=0.80 s due to something going on in the ceiling region
above the C-port area.

Next shot: no changes.
Apr 26 2007 09:47:18:280AM1070426004Robert GranetzShot 04 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. LH faulted a lot. ICRF fired from
t=1.2 to 1.6 s (E and J antennas).

Next shot: no changes.
Apr 26 2007 10:02:09:320AM1070426005Robert GranetzShot 05 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. P_LH=300 kW, t=0.7-1.2 s, pretty clean.
P_ICRF=2.0 MW, t=1.2-1.6 s, very clean.

Next shot: no changes.
Apr 26 2007 10:14:52:557AM1070426006Robert GranetzShot 06 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. P_LH=550 kW, some faulting.
ICRF had lots of faulting. DNB didn't fire.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 10:24:46:060AM1070426007Robert GranetzShot 07 -- No plasma...no TF, for some unknown reason.

Next shot: try again.
Apr 26 2007 11:03:20:340AM1070426008Robert GranetzShot 08 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. LH faulted a lot. Picrf=2-2.8 MW.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 11:03:46:700AM1070426009Robert GranetzShot 09 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. Picrf=2.8 MW. Plh=400 kW, short pulse length.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 11:23:43:257AM1070426010Robert GranetzShot 10 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 11:20:06:537AM1070426011Robert GranetzIn preparation for the 2nd half of today (dust run), I have created in segment 4 the
DPCS programming necessary for a gas-only shot. It was derived from yesterday's
beam-into-gas shots. I loaded this new segment 4 into the DPCS model tree prior to
this C-Mod shot, so I can grab it later today from any shot, starting with this one.

Note that it used PG4 to puff gas into the vessel (and no fields), but we may want
to try puffing dust into vacuum.
Apr 26 2007 11:37:37:480AM1070426011Robert GranetzShot 11 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. Startup wasn't so good, with an outside
hit. LH didn't fire.

Next shot: add 2 ms to pre-fill puff. Turn on argon puff (100 ms).
Apr 26 2007 11:47:17:187AM1070426012Robert GranetzShot 12 -- Plasma. Good full-length plasma. Good startup. Hard x-rays nearly gone.
Picrf=3.3 MW, pretty steady.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 12:05:04:880PM1070426013Robert GranetzShot 13 -- Plasma. Good full-length pulse.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 12:24:52:373PM1070426014Robert GranetzShot 14 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. LH and ICRF(J) overlapped, but not good for LH.

Next shot: reduce outer gap from 7 mm to 4 mm.
Apr 26 2007 12:31:27:500PM1070426015Robert GranetzShot 15 -- no power shot cycle because a breaker pulled out during INIT.

Next shot: try the original plan again (decrease outer gap by 3 mm)
Apr 26 2007 01:04:25:543PM1070426016Robert GranetzShot 16 - Plasma. Good shot, but disrupted at end of flattop. DIV2 stopped working on
the last shot (the no-power shot cycle). I can't get ahold of JT, so I asked Josh to
see what he can do. We need this camera for the dust experiment.

Next shot: no DPCS changes.
Apr 26 2007 01:18:16:720PM1070426017Robert GranetzShot 17 -- Plasma. Good full-length plasma. Last shot of the LH half-day run.

Next shot: switch over to dust run. Use segment 2 from 1070404026.
Apr 26 2007 01:33:48:400PM1070426018Robert GranetzShot 18 -- Plasma. Disrupted at 1.0 s, probably due to excessive dust injection.
DIV2 sees a bright stream coming out of the capillary, and some discrete
particles later in the puff. Injected signal saturates at 1.26e21 molecules.

Next shot: Turn off dust injector for next shot; see if we have problems getting
plasma back. For the next dust shot. NINJA supply pressure will be
reduced to 3 psi (from 10 psi) of D2. Pulse length will be reduced
to 100 ms (from 150 ms).
Apr 26 2007 01:41:56:887PM1070426019Robert GranetzShot 19 -- Fizzle. Fields and pressure are good. Just post-disruption post-dust recovery.

Next shot: no changes, try again.
Apr 26 2007 01:54:17:783PM1070426020Robert GranetzShot 20 -- Fizzle.

Next shot: reduce pre-fill by 4 ms.
Apr 26 2007 03:05:03:873PM1070426021Robert GranetzShot 21 -- Dud. EF1's didn't charge up properly.

Next shot: try, try again.
Apr 26 2007 04:13:34:070PM1070426022Robert GranetzShot 22 -- Fizzle.

Next shot: decrease pre-fill another 2 ms; add -10 amps to IC_EF4.
Apr 26 2007 04:31:01:890PM1070426023Robert GranetzShot 23 -- Plasma. (forgot what it looked like). Good full-length shot. Dust injection
was turned off for this shot

Next shot: turn on dust injection. Add 2 ms to pre-fill. Add 5 amps to IC_EF4.
NINJA plenum pressure will be 3 psi, pulse length=0.100 s.
Apr 26 2007 05:09:21:577PM1070426024Robert GranetzShot 24 -- Plasma. Good full-length shot. Dust injection was on, although we
purposely did not run the boron shaker beforehand. We did see some dust
""""sliding"""" down the outer divertor shelf, which may imply that there
is not a lot of toroidal motion.

Next shot: add 5 amps to IC_EF4. Decrease pre-fill puff 2 ms. Also, a lithium pellet
will be fired in at t=1.6 s.
Apr 26 2007 05:16:47:703PM1070426025Robert GranetzShot 25 -- Plasma. Good shot. Dust injector fired. We could probably use more
dust. Brock's lithium pellet killed the plasma at t=1.6 s. Startup
was awful on this shot. Don't use this startup segment. DNB also fired.

End of run.
