This paper presents a detailed analysis of the transport behaviour of the detached plasmas in W7-AS based on an extended numerical study using the EMC3-EIRENE code, aimed at understanding the underlying physics responsible for the geometry-dependent detachment stability observed in W7-AS island divertor experiments. Here, a stable detachment can only be established when the control coils are switched on to generate sufficiently large islands with relatively short connection lengths. Special attention will be paid to a discussion of the carbon radiation, location and dynamics of the radiation layer, the neutral screening efficiency specific to the island divertor geometry and its impact on the detachment stability. Based on the three-dimensional simulation results, a linear stability model is presented in order to obtain some insight into the mechanisms driving the instability. The radiation behaviour and the location and evolution of the radiation zone in the island divertor will be discussed with respect to those of tokamak-MARFEs. |
