Analysis demonstrates turbulence in the Large Helical Device, indicating insights into microscale turbulence behavior.
To study microscale turbulence, two non-invasive scattering instruments that use electromagnetic waves in the microwave to millimeter-wave range have been installed at the Large Helical Device. One instrument is a Doppler reflectometer, which is suitable for observing turbulence with relatively low wavenumbers. Three circuit systems were constructed for this instrument. The Doppler reflectometer allows a very large number of spatial points (more than 30) to be observed simultaneously in the radial direction and toroidal correlation analysis to be conducted. The other instrument is a two-frequency millimeter-wave scattering system, which was developed to observe turbulence at relatively high wavenumbers. This scattering system has multiple antennas in a vacuum vessel. It can be used to study turbulence anisotropy or, in combination with the Doppler reflectometer, the response of turbulence at various scales.
