The Large Volume Plasma Device (LVPD) has successfully demonstrated excitation of Electron Temperature Gradient (ETG) driven turbulence in finite plasma beta condition , where the threshold condition for ETG turbulence is satisfied. The observed mode follows wave-vector scaling and frequency ordering of ETG turbulence. Simultaneous measurement of fluctuations in electron temperature, $\delta T_e $, plasma density, $\delta n_e $ and potential,$\delta V_f $ are obtained. Strong negative correlation with correlation coefficients $ C_{\delta n_e \delta \phi_f}\sim -0.8 $ and $ C_{\delta T_e \delta \phi }\sim -0.9 $ are observed between density and potential and temperature and potential fluctuations, respectively. These correlated density, temperature and potential fluctuations lead to generation of turbulent heat flux. The measured heat flux is compared with theoretically estimated heat flux from ETG model equations. The experimental result shows that net heat flux is directed radially outward. |
