Abstract

Self-consistent simulations of plasmas in small tokamak experiments like ISTTOK and HL-2A are carried out using the 1.5D BALDUR integrated predictive modeling code. In these simulations, the plasma core is described by using Multi-mode core transport model. The plasma temperature and density profiles, as well as other plasma parameters, are obtained as the predictions in each simulation. Both plasma temperature and density profiles are found to peak near the plasma center. As for the ion thermal transport, the drift-resistive ballooning term is dominant in most region of the plasma; while the ion temperature gradient and kinetic ballooning modes dominate in some regions near center of the plasma. In addition, it is found that the increasing of electron density results in an increase of the drift-resistive ballooning mode and a decrease of the kinetic ballooning mode.
