Outline of Research at the Start

本研究では、将来の核燃焼炉心内部のような低衝突プラズマにおいてその特性に大きな影響を及ぼすことが予想されている微視的乱流の観測システムを確立するため、(1)3Dプリンターを用いた立体造形によって複雑な三次元構造のアレイアンテナを精密かつ安価に製作し、(2)機械駆動機構が無く高速かつ堅牢に様々な角度にミリ波ビームをスキャンすることのできる周波数走査型のレーダー散乱計測システムを構築し、(3)高温プラズマ実験装置に適用してプラズマの微視的乱流の計測を行い、予測理論研究との比較を行うことにより、新しい乱流物理の知見を得ることを目的とする。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Understanding and suppressing turbulence in high-temperature plasmas is important to improve the performance of magnetic confinement plasmas for fusion power reactors, and it is necessary to develop a method to observe turbulence characteristics in detail that can be applied in future high-load severe environments.
In this research, we established a technique to fabricate a phased array antenna that can be composed only of a metal housing without a driving mechanism using a 3D metal printer. By constructing a Doppler radar system using this antenna as a transmitter/receiver antenna, we were able to develop a method for observing the spatial structure, rotation velocity, and energy spectrum of turbulent flows.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

フェーズドアレイアンテナは社会において通信や防衛など様々な分野で活用されている。本研究で開発を行った漏れ波アレイアンテナは従来からある技術に最新の金属3Dプリンタ―を用いた造形技術を組合わせることによって、初めて実現することができた。立体造形ならではの構造物の実現化とそれによる科学的成果の現実化を示した例であると言える。プラズマ物理研究においてもこの新しいアンテナを用いた観測技法によりこれまでに観測することができなかった乱流のエネルギースペクトルの時空間構造変化を調べられることとなり、これから新たな物理的な知見が得られると期待できる。
