Intermittent Behaviour IV
This intermittency is caused by the competition of the following 3 factors;
1. Generation of sheared flows due to nonlinear coupling between higher harmonics, and suppression of the ITG turbulence by the sheared flows.
2. Gradual reduction of sheared flows due to viscosity.3. Rapid re-growth of the ITG modes due to the reduction
of the stabilizing effect by the sheared flows.
Scaling LawScaling Law
The scaling law
log Nu 3 log ∝ Ki
is obtained.It is suggested that the improved confinement is related to the intermittency of the system.
SummarySummary
1. Sheared flows are generated by the nonlinear mode coupling, and a bifurcation corresponding to an L-H transition has been obtained.
2. In the strongly turbulent regime, an intermittent behaviour appears. This intermittency is caused by the competition of the 3 factors.
3. A scaling law, log Nu 3 log ∝ Ki, has been obtained between Nu and Ki. Improved confinements are related to the intermittency of the system.
4. Essential nonlinear behaviour of the system can be at least qualitatively accounted for by nonlinear interaction of several low order harmonics.
New physical phenomena can be obtained by using 18 ODE model.
