Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of nuclear fusion plasma measurement technology, specifically relating to a quantitative measurement of atomic reactions in a nuclear fusion plasma physics research device, and particularly to a method and system for quantitative diagnosis of atomic reactions in a nuclear fusion device. Background Technology

[0002] In nuclear fusion research devices, the plasma in the edge and divertor regions contains various atomic and molecular reaction processes, including ionization reactions, radiation recombination reactions, three-body recombination reactions, charge exchange reactions, and molecular dissociation reactions. These atomic reaction processes are crucial for the particle balance within the plasma. Furthermore, they are essential and critical for analyzing the divertor de-target physics processes and controlling the thermal load during device operation. Additionally, due to the rapid changes in plasma temperature and density in the edge and divertor plasma regions, the atomic reaction processes and their quantities vary significantly across different spatial regions. Therefore, it is necessary to find a diagnostic system and method capable of simultaneously and quantitatively measuring the atomic reaction processes in the two-dimensional space of the plasma in the edge and divertor regions of a nuclear fusion device. Currently, however, there is no effective system or method to achieve quantitative diagnosis of atomic reactions in a wide range of two-dimensional spatial regions of a nuclear fusion device. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and system for quantitatively measuring the atomic reactions of plasma in a nuclear fusion plasma physics research device. By using dual spectroscopy and tomographic inversion, the atomic reaction characteristics of plasma in the two-dimensional space of the edge and divertor region of the nuclear fusion device can be obtained, thereby quantitatively giving the number and distribution of atomic reactions in the two-dimensional plasma space region.

[0004] The first aspect of the present invention provides a method for quantitative diagnosis of atomic reactions in a nuclear fusion device, used to quantitatively measure the atomic reaction process of plasma in a two-dimensional space within the edge and divertor regions of a nuclear fusion device. This method includes the following operations:

[0005] A selected two-dimensional spatial region within the nuclear fusion device is identified, and the target space to be measured within this region is delineated. Dual-spectral line information of the selected two-dimensional spatial region is acquired, including the absolute intensities of different spectra. Based on the acquired dual-spectral line information, the radiation intensity (photon number) of the dual-spectral radiation in the target space is calculated using tomographic inversion iterative calculation. The atomic reaction characteristics of the target space are determined based on the radiation intensity ratio, and the number of atomic reactions is quantitatively determined based on the atomic reaction characteristics and the radiation intensity or photon number of the target space.

[0006] In the edge and divertor regions of nuclear fusion devices, emission spectroscopy can be considered an important tool for analyzing atomic reaction processes. As the effective size of electron orbitals increases, the probability of electrons with high quantum numbers (n) participating in three-body collisions increases rapidly, while the probability of spontaneous radiative reactions decreases rapidly. Therefore, emission spectra with high quantum numbers (n) are found to be related to electron-ion recombination reactions, serving as a direct indicator of three-body recombination reactions. Typically, neutral particles produced by stimulated molecular recombination reactions have lower electronic energy levels (principal quantum number n < 5), while neutral particles produced by three-body recombination reactions are usually in higher energy levels (n ≥ 5). This method utilizes dual-spectral analysis and tomographic inversion, taking advantage of the spectral differences in the emission spectra of nuclear fusion fuels (hydrogen and its isotopes), such as the ratio of absolute intensity differences, to determine the atomic reaction characteristics in the spatial region. This includes whether recombination or ionization reactions are dominant, thus quantitatively providing the number and distribution of atomic reactions in the two-dimensional plasma spatial region. The advantages of this diagnostic system and method are that it can provide the atomic reaction characteristics, quantity and spatial distribution in the edge or divertor region of a nuclear fusion device, and can simultaneously analyze multiple atomic reaction processes. It features a large measured spatial area, high spatial resolution and high temporal resolution.

[0007] In some feasible embodiments, obtaining the bispectral line information of the selected two-dimensional spatial region includes:

[0008] The selected two-dimensional spatial region is measured using a two-plane array CCD detector, and the pixel sequences of the two-plane array CCD detectors correspond to the same spatial position, that is, the pixel sequences of the two array CCD detectors correspond one-to-one and correspond to the same measured spatial position.

[0009] In some feasible embodiments, the step of calculating the radiant intensity of the bispectral radiation in the target space using tomographic inversion iterative calculation based on the acquired bispectral line information includes:

[0010] Absolute calibration of the measurements of the two-sided CCD detector includes in-situ calibration of the spectral line measurements of the two-sided CCD detector to determine the number of photons corresponding to the measurement values ​​of each pixel of the two-sided CCD detector.

[0011] In some feasible embodiments, the radiation intensity of the bispectral lines of the target spatial region under test at the two-array CCD detectors is measured based on the absolute calibration of each pixel of the two-array CCD detectors.

[0012] In some feasible embodiments, based on the stated radiation intensity, iterative calculations are performed using tomographic inversion. The inversion analysis yields the corresponding radiation intensities of the two spectral lines at the target space to be measured, and the ratio of the radiation intensities of the two spectral lines at the target space is calculated. This ratio of radiation intensity is used to evaluate the atomic reaction characteristics of the region, determining whether the spatial region is dominated by complex reactions, ionization reactions, or both. Based on this, the type of atomic reaction and the analytical calculation method can be determined.

[0013] In some feasible embodiments, the method for quantitative diagnosis of atomic reactions in a nuclear fusion device further includes the following operations:

[0014] Based on the atomic reaction characteristics of the target space to be measured, determine whether the target space is an ionization reaction region, a complex reaction region, or a mixed region containing both ionization and complex reactions.

[0015] In some feasible embodiments, the number of atomic reactions in the target space is calculated using the number of ionization or recombination reactions per unit photon, based on the atomic reaction characteristics of the target space to be measured.

[0016] In some feasible embodiments, the dual spectral lines are a first spectral line and a second spectral line, respectively; the first spectral line is a low quantum number Balmer line H. α The second spectral line is a high quantum number Balmer line, where n>=5, and n is the atomic principal quantum number of the spectral line; a. When the target space to be measured is an ionization reaction region, the number of ionization reactions in the region is calculated based on the radiation intensity of the first spectral line at the target space and the number of ionization reactions per unit photon; b. When the target space to be measured is a recombination reaction region, the number of recombination reactions in the region is calculated based on the radiation intensity of the second spectral line at the target space and the number of recombination reactions per unit photon; c. When the target space to be measured is a mixed region, the number of ionization reactions or recombination reactions in the region is calculated by selecting one of the methods a or b above based on the ratio of the radiation intensity of the dual-spectral radiation at the target space.

[0017] Neutral particles produced by excited recombination reactions have lower electronic energy levels (quantum number n < 5), while neutral particles produced by three-body recombination reactions are typically in higher energy levels (n ≥ 5). Therefore, dual-spectral analysis and tomographic inversion can be used to utilize the high quantum number spectral lines (n ≥ 5, such as H) in the Balmer series (n → 2) of nuclear fusion fuels (hydrogen and its isotopes). γ H ε H η (etc.) and low quantum number (n=3) spectral lines H α The ratio of absolute intensities is used to determine the atomic reaction characteristics in the spatial region. Based on this, the number of recombination reactions in the recombination-dominant region is calculated using the absolute intensity of high quantum number spectral lines. Then, H... αThe absolute intensity of spectral lines is used to calculate the number of ionization reactions in the region where ionization reactions are dominant, thereby providing a quantitative estimate of the number and distribution of atomic reactions in the two-dimensional plasma space region.

[0018] In some feasible embodiments, delineating the target space to be measured within the selected two-dimensional spatial region includes: dividing the selected two-dimensional spatial region into n spatial grid regions according to the spatial resolution requirements of the measurement, with each spatial grid region being the target space to be measured.

This quantitative diagnostic method can be implemented using the following measurement components for quantitative diagnostics of atomic reactions in nuclear fusion devices, and a quantitative diagnostic system for atomic reactions in the nuclear fusion device utilizing these measurement components. The system implementing this method includes a two-sided CCD detector, a data acquisition and processing module, and a component for guiding the optical path 4 and splitting the optical path in two. Two-dimensional space refers to a planar space, which in the diagram can refer to... Figure 3 A two-dimensional spatial region on the plane shown.

[0047] The atomic reaction quantitative diagnostic method in this embodiment includes the following operations:

[0048] A selected two-dimensional spatial region 2 is determined in the nuclear fusion device, and the target space to be measured within the selected two-dimensional spatial region is delineated; the bispectral spectral information of the target space to be measured is obtained, which includes the absolute intensities of different spectra; based on the obtained bispectral spectral information, the radiation intensity of the bispectral radiation in the target space to be measured is calculated using tomographic inversion iterative calculation; the atomic reaction characteristics of the target space to be measured are determined based on the ratio of radiation intensity; and the number of atomic reactions is quantitatively determined based on the atomic reaction characteristics of the target space to be measured and the radiation intensity or photon number.

[0049] Combination Figure 3 The selected two-dimensional spatial region is divided into n spatial grid regions according to the required spatial resolution of the measurement. Each spatial grid region is the target space to be measured. Dividing the space into n spatial grid regions includes the following operations: obtaining the spatial region to be divided, which is the corresponding space of the selected two-dimensional spatial region on a cross-section perpendicular to the circumference of the nuclear fusion device; and then dividing this space into n spatial grid regions according to the required resolution of the spatial region to be divided. Diagnostic analysis is performed on all or part of the target space to be measured obtained from the division to obtain the number and distribution of ionization and recombination reactions within the entire or partial selected two-dimensional spatial region.

[0050] The dual spectral lines are a first spectral line and a second spectral line; the first spectral line is the low quantum number Balmer line H. α(n=3), the second spectral line is the high quantum number Balmer line (n≥5); a. When the target space to be measured is an ionization reaction region, the number of ionization reactions in the region is calculated based on the radiation intensity of the first spectral line at the target space and the number of ionization reactions per unit photon; b. When the target space to be measured is a recombination reaction region, the number of recombination reactions in the region is calculated based on the radiation intensity of the second spectral line at the target space and the number of recombination reactions per unit photon; c. When the target space to be measured is a mixed region, the number of ionization reactions or recombination reactions in the region is calculated by selecting one of the above methods a or b based on the ratio of the radiation intensity of the dual-spectral radiation at the target space.

[0051] The acquisition of bispectral spectral information of the selected two-dimensional spatial region includes: measuring the selected two-dimensional spatial region using a two-faceted CCD detector, where the pixel sequences of the two-faceted CCD detectors correspond to the same spatial location. Based on the acquired bispectral spectral information, the radiant intensity of the bispectral radiation in the target space is calculated using tomographic inversion iterative calculation, including: absolute calibration of the measurements from the two-faceted CCD detectors, including in-situ calibration of the spectral line measurements from the two-faceted CCD detectors, determining the number of photons corresponding to the measurement value of each pixel of the two-faceted CCD detectors.
