Description of the Fokker-Plank Code Used to Model ECRH of the Constance 2 Plasma.

by Michael E. Mauel January 30, 1982 Plasma Fusion Center Research Laboratory of Electronics Massachusetts Institute of Technology

PFC-RR-82/2

The time-dependent Fokker-Plank code which is used to model the development of the electron velocity distribution during FCR H of the Constance 2 mirror-confined plasma is described in this report. The ECRH is modeled by the bounce-averaged quasilinear theory derived by Mauel'. The effect of colli-sions are found by taking the appropriate gradients of the Rosenbluth potentials, and the electron distribu-tion is advanced in time by using a modified alternating direcdistribu-tion implicit (ADI) technique as explained by Killeen and Marx2.The program was written in LISP to be run in the MACSYMA environment of the MACSYM A Consortium's P1 )P- 10 computer.

This report describes both the timc-dependent, partial diffcrential equation used to describe the development of the electron distribution during ECRH of the Constance 2 mirror-confined plasma and the method by which this equation was solved. The electrons are modeled in (v; 0) phase-space, where 0 =

sin~-(vil/v). The ion distribution is considered to be a Maxwellian with known density and temperature. 'The ECRII is modeled with a bounce-averaged quasilinear equation which is strictly correct only for linear heating of confined particles. However, since the magnetic field is assumed to be parabolic, the heating can be txtended" into the loss cone when the potential is positive. Changes in the particle energy are assumed :o occur randomly, over several passes through resonance. The potenti4l of the plasma is also assumed to be parabolic and a known function of time. Those particles within the loss region of velocity-space are loss at a rate detennined from their transit time. Each point in velocity space is advanced in time using a modified Alternating Direction ImpIkit (ADI) technique used by Killeen and Marx2

The report is organized into six sections. The first section describes the Fokker-Plank model for electron-electron and electron-ion collisions. The second section describes the loss-cone term from which the electron loss current is calculated. The third section describes the programming of the ECRH term. The fourth section describes the numerical method used to solve the part al-differential equation. The fifth section lists the diagnostics available to evaluate the code's performance. And, the final section gives some examples and checks of the operation of the program.

As will be shown in the next subsection, only G,.l((v, 0) need be numerically integrated. Since for each phase-space point, this integration involves a summation over all grid points and is very time consum-ing. Therefore, all of the coeflicients for the integration is saved on disk2.

1.2. Reduction of the Fokker-Plank Equation . For this program, the electrons arc placed in a (v, 0, 0, 0) coordinate system, and Equation 1 must be expressed in terms of these coordinates. The electrons are assuned to be indepcndent of gyrophase, 0, and the collision term is trivially bounced-averaged over the bounce-phase, V, by assuming a square-well. ('hc ECRI-l and endloss terms assume parabolic magnetic and

potential profiles.) Equation 1 becomes

For the ions, II and G are independent of pitch-anglc which allows an analytic expression for the elcctron-ion collision term and simplifies the tensor tenn above.

1.3. The Electron-Ion Term . Although for

Finally, a Maxwellian electron source is often added to the code to maintain the density constant, balancing the loss cone term. When the source temperature is low (< 10ev), this acts to model a cold-plasma stream or an entering flux of secondaries.

3. The ECRH Term

3. 1. The Diffusion Paths . The ECRI-I term used for this code was derived by MaucLi. In tlhis model, only linear heating of trapped, electrons are heated. Since the effect of the heating is bounced-averaged, particles in the loss region of velocity-space are not heated.

The bounce-averaged diffusion equation is

The type and number of resonance points depend upon R,.., k1j, and the actual bounce-orbit of the

electron. For the program, these variations can be classified into three categories which are shown in Figure 1. The mirror is assumed to be symmetric for interchange of s with -s.

4. Numerical Methods

The Fokker-Plank equation (Equations 24, 27 and 38) is solved by the modified Alternating Direction Implicit (AllD) method used by Killeen and Marx2. A grid in the (v,0) phase space is defined

with variable spacing in the v-direction to provide a wide energy resolution and in the 0-direction to allow quadrature integration. Typically, the grid has 45 v-points and 16-theta points. Integration in the v-direction is performed with Simpson's nile modified to for variable grid spacing2.

The ADI solution consists of kplitting" the 2-dimensional partial diffierential equation into two parts so that the v and 0 differences can be taken separately. 'his gives two equations which can be solved implicitly.

5. 0 from bounce-direction symmetry. 0=w/2

These boundary conditions are used to combine or eliminate terms in the upper left and bottom right corners of the matrix. In this way, the initial conditions for the sweep out and back through the grid indices are determined.

Finally, note that all of the gradients of Gt, (v, 0) needed for the electron-clectron collision term can be found using ceatral differences since all of the boundary points are obtained implicitly from the interior points and the boundary conditions.

5. Diagnostics

The following diagnostics are available to analyze the program's results during simulation of ECRH of Constance 2: 1. F
