Repeat of 1090728 without J PLC issues:

1. Using standard discharge (1090728010 LSN), we will
resume J antenna operation. We will run J separate from D and E
antennas and begin with low power pulses. After evaluating the state
of J antenna from an operational standpoint, we will seek to increase
the power to 2 MW.

2. Discharge target is 1 MA, 5.4 T with moderate shaping and 1 cm outer
gap. If time permits we will change plasma current and density to
condition the antenna and other surfaces.

3. If needed we will switch to USN, like 1090728029, in deuterium with nl04~0.8

4. If needed, we will also switch to He.

We had more problems with J antenna control system. First we
completely by-passed the PLC remote control in J3. However, the J4
gate board was intermittant after about 009 and we finally (after a
number of false starts) replaced the voltage regulator and drivers
chips for 025. J antenna ran to 2 MW relatively well for 029 and 030.
Hopefully this means we have solved this problem.

The machine ran reasonably well today. After 2 disruptions (1 MA), we started having some fizzles. We also had two shots (6 and 28), that got to >150 kA and then died. Shot 6 appeared to have a vertical problem. Shot 28 did not, but had runaways coming up strongly.

Shot 14 got to 100 kA before dying, with a vertical problem.

Shot 10 had a density feedback problem, as the TCI gatevalves were closed during the shot. The result was a relatively high (but unknown) density plasma. H/(H+D) for this shot was the lowest of the day, around 8% during the flattop. H/(H+D) was about 9% on shot 1, rising to around 15% on most of the other shots.

Runaways were an increasing problem as the run progressed.

Starting with shot 15, we changed the asynchronous fizzle programming, to increase the target currents for OH2L and OH2U following a fizzle. The new target is 20 kA. After fizzles, this gives about 17.5 kA. This may have helped with the OH2L coax resistance following fizzles.

We also implemented delayed fizzle, OH invert and TF rampdown, to get a stronger swing in the OH2's following full length shots. There was no apparent improvement in coax resistance, and the TF heating caused a slow down in the shot cycle. These changes were reversed starting with shot 22 (which turned out to be a fizzle).

*****PHYSOP WARNING************************************

If you load from 1090729015 or 1090729016, you will get programming for dpcs_fizzle in segment 4 of the current shot, instead of from an old shot. This can be dangerous, if changes to segment 4 are subsequently made.

Also, any loading of shots prior to 1090729014 will cause the dpcs_fizzle to revert to the previous OH2 current programming, which may not be optimum for the coax resistances.

J3 ran without J4 - "spurious fizzle"

D and E are still ratty while ramping to 1.5 MW


Jul 29 2009 01:35:08:303PM1090729016Steve Wukitchplasma

D and E still struggle at high power

J is still faulting

remove J4 fizzle signal from control and repeat

J3 ran without J4 again despite the 'spurious fizzle' being disconnected from the arc generator board

this suggests the control issue is not a 'spurious fizzle'

swap J3 and J4 gate boards

repeat
Jul 29 2009 01:45:41:633PM1090729019Steve Wukitchplasma

no sign of bad control operation from J

lots of little H-modes

take another shot to see if problem recurs
Jul 29 2009 01:51:00:540PM1090729020Steve Wukitchplasma

little H-modes

J control problem still gone

swap gate boards back and retry
Jul 29 2009 02:09:39:900PM1090729021Steve Wukitchplasma

J3 ran without J4 - DIO2 gate output to J4 is 1 V instead of expected 5 V

repeat


Jul 29 2009 02:46:13:567PM1090729023Steve Wukitchplasma

J4 gate falls low like it is either a fizzle or miscounting number of faults

increase digitizing rate to investigate J faults

repeat
Jul 29 2009 03:46:02:003PM1090729024Steve Wukitchplasma

still have gate problem on J4

no J3 gate but J4 was fine - @&!*@

test J3 into dummy load - okay
Jul 29 2009 04:25:50:143PM1090729027Steve Wukitchplasma

now no J3 demand - operator error

Jul 29 2009 12:52:10:150PM1090729015Jim IrbySteve Wolfe and I have modified the software fizzle detector to double swing the OH2s to +20 kA from _15 kA.

Approx sequence of events (physops should read Steve's email):

programming from 1060308026 seg 4 was loaded into seg 4.
OH2U and OH2L waveforms were modified to go to +20 kA
wires 1-7 were zeroed (zero all)
build segment button pushed (not certain this step was needed)
sync goes to async
off goes to on
loaded --- open tree done

Note that TF PLC delay is 600 ms, and OH1 and OH2 PLC delays are 600 ms

If this programming looks better we will change the reference shot.

change in fizzle programming successfully increased OH2 current.
