Session Leader Run Plan for 1070614 MP485: "H-Mode Density Control and Pedestal Response to Cryopumping" This run will attempt to combine H-mode operation with strong pumping, with the goal of documenting H-mode density control and pedestal profile response. Edge TS will be the chief edge profile diagnostic, but we will also be looking for Ti and rotation data from CXRS. We will begin with scans of SSEP to regulate discharge pumping speeds, and compare impact of cryopump on L-modes and H-modes as the topology is varied from LSN to USN. If time allows, we will then explore pumping in H-modes with static topology, with (slightly) LSN and USN discharges. Overnight boronization is required, with vertical field. Based on the results from 1070612, a dwell position of 80cm is requested. Boronization is to end at 05:00, in order to allow time for ICRF transmitter fuses to be replaced. Following this, ECDC should be run in He for 1--2 hours. Requested systems: *Cryopump available *Enable NINJA with 10psi D2, for diagnostic gas puffing. *DNB request: at least 6A, 30/15ms ON/OFF, starting at 0.5s. *ICRF request: 2.5MW flat, 0.7--1.3s A. SSEP scans to regulate pumping Load from shot 1070601030, 5.4T, 1MA, L-mode target nl04=9e19. Turn off gas puff at 0.6s. Program SSEP to begin at -3mm and scan up to +5mm, from t=0.7s to 0.9s. Fix right gap at 1.2cm, left gap at 1.2cm. Run the following sequence: 1. Ohmic, with pump warm. Look for change in neutral pressures top/bottom to help "calibrate" EFIT-reported SSEP. 2. Ohmic, with pump cold. Observe pump-out for comparison with the H-mode case. 3. With ICRF, pump warm. We are looking for a sustained H-mode as the plasma transitions from LSN-->DN-->USN, for systematic comparison with the pumped version. 4. With ICRF, pump cold. Document pedestal response, H-mode pumpout. Request ICRF power of 3MW if necessary. Repeat steps 1--4 at (0.8MA, nl04=7e19) and (0.6MA, nl04=5e19) and, if time is ample, perhaps 1.2MA and/or 0.4MA. B. H-mode pump-out in static magnetic geometry 1. Load from shot 1070601023: 5.4T, 1MA, L-mode target nl04=9e19. SSEP fixed at -3mm. Hold right gap at 1.2cm, left gap at 1.2cm. Obtain ICRF-heated H-mode with pump warm, then with pump cold. Repeat at (0.8MA, nl04=7e19) and (0.6MA, nl04=5e19) 2. Load from shot 1070601031: 5.4T, 1MA, L-mode target nl04=9e19. Do NOT turn off gas puff at 0.6s. Hold right gap at 1.2cm, left gap at 1.2cm. Raise ICRF to maximum available to obtain USN H-modes with pump warm, then with pump cold. Repeat at (0.8MA, nl04=7e19) and (0.6MA, nl04=5e19).

Session Leader Run Summary for 1070614 MP485: "H-Mode Density Control and Pedestal Response to Cryopumping" This run was an attempt to combine H-mode operation with strong pumping, with the goal of documenting H-mode density control and pedestal profile response. Because the upper chamber cryopump is most effective in nearly double null (DN) or upper single null (USN) geometry, we wanted to obtain H-modes in these topologies and compare them systematically in pumped and unpumped cases. We began by pursuing scans of SSEP to regulate discharge pumping speeds, which also allowed us to start the H-mode in a discharge biased slightly LSN, where the H-mode power threshold is low, and in which steady EDA H-modes are more the norm. Shots were to be run at a range of plasma current, with an H-mode maintained across the sweep through balanced DN. It took some time to established a suitable recipe for getting the desired SSEP trace, while maintaining a suitable amount of non-private flux on the pumping slots. At the same time, we had problems running 1MA shots and keeping coil currents below limits. We eventually got a decent collection of shots at 800kA (5--12) and 600 kA (13--19) both with and without ICRF, and with and without pumping. We also were able to obtain pumped and unpumped H-modes at 1MA, albeit with disruptions in flattop. Lower divertor pump-out and global density drop was generally observed upon transition to slightly USN geometry with the pump on. However, a similar drop in H-mode density was observed even with the pump at N2 temperature (e.g. shot 9). This was reflected in the pedestal density, and resulted in a collisionality drop very similar to that seen in the pumped case. Effects on pedestal collisionality due to pumping alone are subtle at best, and will require some time to tease out. However, there were clear indications of pumping on the SOL plasma, as upper divertor probes and the midplane gauge both saw the pressure drop by a factor of about two in pumped vs. unpumped cases. In fact, shots 13--17 provided strong indications that ICRF performance could be improved by maintaining wall pressure below empirical neutral pressure limits experienced by the individual antennas. Shots 24--30 were attempts to generate H-modes in a static USN topology. Almost 3MW was required to do this, as expected. As in our prior experience, USN H-modes are less collisional than their LSN counterparts. USN shots at 1MA demonstrated that pumping could be used to bring down the pedestal density in H-mode (compare the unpumped 24 with the pumped 26,27). We tried for steadier H-modes at 800kA, but were stopped by a mysterious power supply problem that manifested itself on 29,30. We officially terminated the run plan at 4:45. Based on the initial observations, it would appear that substantial density pump-out in H-mode will only occur in solidly USN discharges. The challenge of making those H-modes steady, such that they survive long enough to allow pumping to have an effect, remains. A note about plasma performance: It was quite good on many of these shots. With the combination of a fresh, well-optimized boronization and DN/USN geometries, we obtained high Te,PED (in some cases, near a keV) and very low collisionality. H-factors were often 1.7 or greater. As we pushed collisionality lower, increasingly peaked density profiles were observed.

A very decent post-boronization run. We explored H-Modes with SSEP scans (from slightly lower to slightly upper null), as well as solidly SNU, with and without cryopumping. Shots at 1 MA were essentially ELM-free, .8MA and .6 MA had EDA. There was ~3 MW ICRF on many shots. Many of the SSEP sweep shots had disruptions early in ramp-down (including the shot that we loaded from). This needs some wirehead optimization. We had two duds today that apparently resulted from very low pressure at t=0, in spite of what should have been sufficient prefill puffs; it appeared the valve did not function properly. There was a third dud, resulting from too small a programmed prefill puff with the cryopump cold; this may have been due to physop error, although I was pretty sure I had made the correct programming change, and did load. We also had 3 post-disruption fizzles (all with the cryopump warmed to liquid nitrogen temperature). The last 2 shots suffered early disruptions, and the PF breaker pulled. It looks like the power supply problem caused the disruptions; the engineers are investigating. Scorecard: Duds 3 Fizzles 3 Plasmas 24 Total cycles 30

Jun 14 2007 09:21:53:997AM	1070614002	Jerry Hughes	Requested: Ohmic, 1MA with pump warm. SSEP scanning -3-->+5 from 0.7 to 0.9s.
Jun 14 2007 09:45:37:947AM	1070614002	Jerry Hughes	Requested: Ohmic, 1MA with pump warm. SSEP scanning -3-->+5 from 0.7 to 0.9s. Result: Scan in SSEP never gets to 5mm and above. Next: Repeat with SSEP demand increased, trying to hold upper strike point fixed
Jun 14 2007 09:56:16:183AM	1070614003	Jerry Hughes	equested: Ohmic, 1MA with pump warm. SSEP scanning from 0.7 to 0.9s. Result: SSEP scan is improved. B-bottom MKS would seem to indicate lower divertor pumpout starting around SSEP=+2mm. There is also a pulse in plasma density at that time. The upper strikepoint is still creeping toward the edge of the pumping slot. Next: Repeat with pump COLD. Earl will try to reduce RXU. RF will still fire in the backdoor.
Jun 14 2007 10:22:19:557AM	1070614004	Jerry Hughes	equested: Ohmic, 1MA with pump cold. SSEP scanning from 0.7 to 0.9s. Result: Some injections during the pump-out phase. H-modes late in the shot with RF inserted and near DN Reaching limits in certain coils. Next: Lower Ip to 800kA. Pump COLD. RF will still fire at 1.3s
Jun 14 2007 10:25:20:730AM	1070614005	Jerry Hughes	equested: Ohmic, 0.8MA with pump cold. SSEP scanning from 0.7 to 0.9s. Result: No disruption that time. SSEP droops after 0.9s. Next: Repeat with pump WARM. Try to reduce the SSEP droop.
Jun 14 2007 10:52:04:747AM	1070614006	Jerry Hughes	Requested: Ohmic, 0.8MA with pump WARM. SSEP scanning. Result: Disrupts again, but the SSEP values look very desirable. Next: Repeat with RF moved to 0.7ms
Jun 14 2007 11:21:40:340AM	1070614007	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA with pump WARM. SSEP scanning. Trying to get H-modes. Result: H-mode during the SSEP scan, cooling and radiating toward the end of its life. RF has a number of trips. The SSEP programming looks appropriate. Unfortunately the shot still disrupts. Next: Repeat; Try to get better match on D-port; Earl will bring SSEP more negative late in the shot to relax demands on power supplies.
Jun 14 2007 11:21:34:027AM	1070614008	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA with pump WARM. SSEP scanning. Trying to get H-modes. Result: Fizzle Next: Try again.
Jun 14 2007 11:31:15:307AM	1070614009	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA with pump WARM. SSEP scanning. Trying to get H-modes. Result: RF looks better, with a decent steady H-mode thorughout the SSEP scan. The near DN H-mode has a very hot edge, with Te,PED~800eV at times. It looks like we have H-mode pump-out, starting at 0.818s even with the pump warm! Next: Try again with pump COLD
Jun 14 2007 11:43:50:310AM	1070614010	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA with pump COLD. SSEP scanning. Trying to get H-modes. Result: RF performs very well, with a decent steady H-mode thorughout the SSEP scan. Te,PED gets to ~1keV, with peak well above 4keV. H89~1.7. It's not entirely clear that we're pumping harder than we were wiht the pump WARM. Can we improve the upper strike position? Next: Try again with pump COLD.
Jun 14 2007 05:41:52:177PM	1070614011	Jerry Hughes	800kA, pump cold.
Jun 14 2007 12:32:06:950PM	1070614012	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA with pump COLD. SSEP scanning. Trying to get H-modes. Result: Decent control of strike. Lose first H-mode do to an injection. The second H-mode has quite a low edge density. Looks encouraging for straight-up USN H-modes. Next: 600kA
Jun 14 2007 12:37:20:183PM	1070614013	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump COLD Pretty nice shot. Good H-factor, T0. The density shows the dip representative of the SSEP flip, at roughly the same time. Central ne stays fairly flat, while the edge ne drops. Martin reports this is one of the most peaked H-modes ever. Radiation is stable, RF is good. Next: Repeat with pump WARM.
Jun 14 2007 12:38:13:543PM	1070614014	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump WARM. Result: Cryopump was purged just in time for pulse. However, we got a dud. Next: Retry.
Jun 14 2007 01:09:35:077PM	1070614015	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump WARM. Result: RF is not so clean. Wukitch thinks we're near a neutral pressure limit on J. Next: Re-allocate power in D,E,J, but otherwise the same shot.
Jun 14 2007 01:10:09:957PM	1070614016	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump WARM. Result: RF still having trouble. Next: Repeat shot 13 with pump COLD, see if we recover the good RF performance.
Jun 14 2007 01:25:27:097PM	1070614017	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump COLD. Result: RF loves the pump-out. Only 3 trips on J, then it runs clean as the midplane pressure drops. Performance has dropped relative to shot 13. Next: 600kA Ohmic, pump cold.
Jun 14 2007 01:49:13:957PM	1070614019	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 600kA, pump warm. Ohmic Result: Looks good. Next: 1MA, pump COLD, with RF.
Jun 14 2007 02:04:33:333PM	1070614020	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, pump cold, RF Result: The first H-mode extends throughout the SSEP scan. Density pedestal doesn't show much sign of pumpout, and central density actually rises at the end of the H-mode. Subsequent H-modes have lower global density. Next: 1MA, pump WARM, with RF.
Jun 14 2007 02:09:35:613PM	1070614021	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, pump warm, RF Result: Fizzle Next: Retry
Jun 14 2007 02:45:44:583PM	1070614022	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, pump warm, RF Result: H-mode through the SSEP scan, but disrupts shortly after. Next: Go to solidly USN shot, pump WARM. Throw in the RF.
Jun 14 2007 02:48:19:207PM	1070614023	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, USN, cryopump WARM Result: Fizzle. Next: Retry
Jun 14 2007 03:24:32:270PM	1070614024	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, USN, cryopump WARM Result: 3 ELM-free H-modes. The first has a very high stored energy and H-factor. Next: Repeat with pump COLD. Zero nl04 feedback at 0.7s simultaneous with RF on time.
Jun 14 2007 03:15:27:893PM	1070614025	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, USN, cryopump COLD Result: Dud Next: Retry
Jun 14 2007 03:41:19:410PM	1070614026	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, USN, cryopump COLD Result: 3 ELM-free H-modes, same as 24. Looks like there is a drop in pedestal density, and an increase in Te. Next: Raise target density and see if we get an EDA to start.
Jun 14 2007 04:12:25:207PM	1070614027	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 1MA, pump COLD, with target density of 1.2e20 Result: Piezo is pegged, so we cannot fuel to the target priot to H-mode transition. With only 10% increase in starting density, the H-modes look very similar to shot 26. No sign of the QCM. Next: Go to 800kA USN, with pump cold.
Jun 14 2007 04:08:11:910PM	1070614028	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 0.8MA USN, pump warm. Result: H-mode is a bit radiative, but there's a hint of the QCM in there, according to PCI spectrograph. Next: Retry with pump COLD.
Jun 14 2007 04:14:36:613PM	1070614029	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 800kA, pump cold. Result: Disrupts at 620ms. Next: Retry
Jun 14 2007 04:28:45:863PM	1070614030	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 800kA, pump cold. Result: Disrupts at 660ms. Next:
Jun 14 2007 04:48:30:020PM	1070614030	Jerry Hughes	Requested: 800kA, pump cold. Result: Disrupts at 660ms. There will be no more plasmas, due to a poorly understood power supply problem.
