The conceptual design of an experiment for demonstrating and developing the efficient sustainment of a spheromak with sufficient confinement is presented. “Sufficient” means that the current drive ...

A high-β spheromak reactor concept has been formulated with an estimated overnight capital cost that is competitive with conventional power sources. This reactor concept utilizes recently discovered imposed-dynamo current drive (IDCD) and a molten s

The Helicity Injected Torus with Steady Inductive Helicity Injection (HIT-SI) consists of an axisymmetric flux conserver and two half-torus magnetic helicity injectors, mounted on either side of the axisymmetric confinement region (Jarboe et al., 200

Periodic boundary conditions, applicable to parallel and non-parallel planes have been developed. Mode selection is achieved by modeling a “slice” of a domain. For instance, modeling a 1/4-slice of a cylindrical Z-pinch geometry eliminates the m

We present the validation of the semi-implicit time stepping method for MH4D, a resistive magnetohydrodynamic finite volume code on a tetrahedral unstructured mesh. The time steps for standard explicit methods, which are constrained by the Courant–

The first sustainment of toroidal plasma current of 50 kA at up to 3 times the injected currents, added in quadrature, using steady inductive helicity injection is described. Separatrix currents-currents not linking the helicity injectors-are sustain

A nonaxisymmetric stable magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibrium within a prolate cylindrical conducting boundary has been produced experimentally. It has m=1 azimuthal symmetry, helical distortion, and flat lambda profile, all in agreement with the co

Electrostatic (dc) helicity injection has previously been shown to successfully sustain the magnetic fields of spheromaks and tokamaks. The magnitude of the injected magnetic helicity balances (within experimental error) the flux lost by resistive de

An increase in the global energy confinement time ({tau}{sub {ital E}}) was obtained in the CTX spheromak by replacing the high-field-error mesh-wall flux conserver with a low-field-error solid-wall flux conserver. The maximum {tau}{sub {ital E}} is

Large improvements in spheromak parameters and new understanding have been obtained from the CTX experiment at Los Alamos [Phys. Rev. Lett. 51, 39 (1983); 61, 2457 (1988)]. In one experiment the global energy confinement time has been increased an or
