墙壁反射中子对脉冲堆波形的影响

墙壁的反射中子会对快脉冲堆的波形产生明显的影响.堆芯中子泄漏后,经过墙壁的反射有一定的概率返回堆芯,由于能量的差异,泄漏中子的返回时间是一个连续的分布.传统的双区模型只考虑了相互作用概率,而没有时间信息,尽管可以很好地解决稳态问题,而无法解决瞬态问题.本文采用等效的方法,把泄漏中子等效为时间相关的堆芯本征源,建立了含有反射效应的时间关联双区模型.求解得到的脉冲波形与CFBR-Ⅱ的实验结果一致,从而合理解释了脉冲波形后沿衰减变慢和坪功率提高的实验现象.

The Micro-Theory of Ultra-Short Pulse Propagating in Nonlinear Fiber

The modified quantum nonlinear Schrodinger equation of ultra-short pulse propagating in fiber is derived using dispersion relation and the Hamiltonian of the transmission system. The derived equation is solved with linearization approximation, and modulation instability is analyzed. The equation is also solved with Hartree approximation. The results indicate that pulse power, loss and self-steeping effect change the critical frequency, the maximum gain and the gain spectrum range, but the third order dispersion has no effect on modulation instability. The expectation value of optical field is average of a set of modified classical solitons, and higher order terms change the amplitude, pulse position and phase of soliton.

Optimization and performance of a high-speed plasma position digital control system

This paper addresses optimization of a high-speed digital feedback controller for a plasma position in Damavand tokamak. Damavand tokamak discharges have plasma currents up to 40 kA with discharge duration greater than 15 ms and toroidal magnetic fields up to 1.2 T. The plasma position is measured using saddle-loops and Rogowski coil and is controlled by electromagnetic forces generated by passing currents through control coils placed around the plasma. A desired control objective is maintaining the plasma in the center of vacuum vessel and to stabilize the plasma in the presence of disturbances in a time domain of the order of few milliseconds. In order to achieve maximum performance it is essential to optimize the control system. In this paper plasma position measurement and the details of implementing high-speed PID controllers based on a TMS320c25 digital signal processor along with the system optimization are presented.     

Gravitational Instability of a Thermally Conducting Plasma in an Oblique Magnetic Field

The combined influence of the effects of Hall currents, magnetic resistivity and viscosity have been studied on the gravitational instability of a thermally conducting homogeneous unbounded plasma in an oblique magnetic field. The solution has been obtained through the normal mode technique and the dispersion relation has been derived. It is shown that the Jeans' criterion for gravitational instability remains unchanged. Solving numerically the dispersion relation, the dependence of the growth rate of the gravitational unstable mode on the considered physical effects has been obtained for an astrophysical situation. For conditions prevailing in the magnetized collapsing clouds, the numerical calculations for the plot of growth rate against wave number has been obtained for several values of the parameters characterizing Hall currents magnetic resistivity viscosity thermal conductivity. It is found that magnetic resistivity and thermal conductivity have destabilizing influence while viscosity has stabilizing influence on the instability of the plasma of disturbance m(ϱ) = 9 × 10⁻³ kg.

The development of Buneman kinetic instability in plasma with hot electrons and cold ions is investigated in the quasilinear approximation at current velocites close to the instability threshold values.

Scrape-off-layer current model for filament structure observed during edge-localized modes in the DIII-D tokamak

The plasma in tokamaks often exhibits a relaxation oscillation called the edge-localized mode (ELM), which is generally attributed to MHD instability driven by strong gradients at the plasma boundary. It is shown here that field-aligned currents flowing just outside the boundary may also play a role in the ELM process. The poloidal perturbation magnetic field during ELMs in the DIII-D tokamak calculated from measured currents can reproduce prominent observed features, including a narrow magnetic structure at the outboard midplane similar to filaments observed earlier in DIII-D and NSTX.

Effects of Hall Currents and Gyroviscosity on the Stability of a Finitely Conducting Rotating Viscous Plasma of Variable Density

The Rayleigh-Taylor instability of an incompressible viscous, finitely conducting, rotating plasma of variable density has been investigated in the presence of the effects of Hall currents and finite ion Larmor radius. The proper solution for a semi-infinité plasma layer having exponentially varying density in the vertical direction has been obtained by making use of a variational principle which is shown to characterize the problem. The dispersion relation has been solved numerically. It is found that gyroviscosity, viscosity and coriolis forces have stabilizing influence whereas Hall currents and resistivity have a destabilizing influence.     

Stability of rotating plasma with twisted magnetic field. II

The stability of a uniformly rotating cylindrical plasma configuration in dynamical equilibrium is discussed. Assuming an axial current and sheet currents for the plasma, we have obtained a dispersion relation for non-axisymmetric perturbations. The dispersion relation comes out to be a complex and implicit function of the frequency of perturbations. Here we have discussed the dispersion equation for the modem=1, with the help of numerical computations. It has been shown that rotation has a stabilizing influence, whereas the axial current destabilizes the cylinder.     

Measurement of mass- and time-dependence of delayed fission neutrons by an on-line mass separator

Delayed neutron emission for thermal neutron fission of²³⁵U is investigated by means of a helium-filled mass separator. At the focus of the separator, the neutron activity is detected in coincidence with theΒ decay preceding the neutron emission. Measurements of the activity build-up give the total delayed neutron yield and the yields for different times after fission. Measurements of the activity decay give the half-life distribution. The mass-dependence of yield and half-life was investigated for the whole fission product mass region. The splitting of the total yield of delayed neutrons between light and heavy fission products has been determined. Based on Keepin's value of the total number of delayed neutrons per fission, a yield of 1.05 and 0.53 neutrons per 100 fissions has been obtained for light and heavy fission products, respectively. The experimentally determined mass- and time-dependences of delayed neutron emission are compared with those calculated from the known precursors. Unidentified neutron activities in the mass regions 85–88 (half-life 1 sec) and 96–100 (half-life 1.5 sec) are discussed. By means of theoretical considerations the yield difference for delayed neutrons between light and heavy fission products is interpreted and the new neutron activity is assigned to the precursors⁹⁸Y or⁹⁹Y.
