Abstract
A long standing shortfall in the predicted L-mode edge energy transport by reduced quasi-linear models of gyrokinetic turbulent transport has been resolved. The improved model TGLF-SAT2 has higher fidelity to gyrokinetic simulations of the electron-scale contribution to the electron energy transport and the ion-scale flux surface shape dependence of energy transport. The success of TGLF-SAT2 in predicting the L-mode and Ohmic edge profiles is critical to whole pulse simulation and opens the door to prediction of the H-mode power threshold.
陀螺动力湍流输运的简化准线性模型在预测 L 模式边缘能量输运方面长期存在的不足已经得到解决。改进后的 TGLF-SAT2 模型对电子尺度对电子能量传输的贡献和离子尺度能量传输的通量面形状依赖性的陀螺动力模拟具有更高的保真度。TGLF-SAT2 在预测 L 模式和欧姆边缘剖面方面的成功对于整个脉冲模拟至关重要,并为预测 H 模式功率阈值打开了大门。
