Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to optimize a fueling scenario in fusion reactor, modelling of gas-jet injection and analysis of plasma responses to the injection are performed. For the modelling, computer simulations of 3D fluid equation using the CIP method have been developed. Detailed diffusion process of cold dense material like an injected gas-jet is calculated. For the analysis of plasma responses to the gas-jet injection, time evolution of the ion temperature is analyzed in the weak shear plasma of JT-60 with the internal transport barrier (ITB). In the case that thermal diffusivity is assumed to increase by about 20% inside the ITB and decrease by about 5% outside the ITB, the analysis result well reproduces the experimental result. The toroidal rotation velocity also responds to the gas-jet injection and recovers faster than the ion temperature.
