Observation of inward transport flux accompanied with the long-lived mode during the L-H transition in the HL-2A tokamak
2020
The inward transport flux accompanied by the long-lived mode (LLM) has been observed by the edge Langmuir probe array during the L-H transition in the HL-2A tokamak. The cross phase between the poloidal electric field fluctuation and the electron density fluctuation in the LLM frequency changed greatly during the L-H transition, which led to the radial transport flux in the LLM frequency to change its transport direction in a given radial region near the pedestal barrier. By using the long distance correlation method, the phase shift of poloidal electric field fluctuation proved to be the key reason, which led to the cross-phase term to change in the LLM frequency. Furthermore, the shear effect has a mode-selecting characteristic on the LLM and turbulence because the direction of turbulent transport still remains radially outward during the H-mode. In addition, when the inward conducted heat flux accompanied by LLM occurs, the poloidal electric field fluctuation and electron temperature fluctuation both have a positive gradient in the LLM frequency; this may indicate that the positive gradient of radial velocity and electron temperature in the LLM frequency play an important role during the entire transport direction change process.The inward transport flux accompanied by the long-lived mode (LLM) has been observed by the edge Langmuir probe array during the L-H transition in the HL-2A tokamak.
