Abstract

Since June 1986 the DIII-D tokamak has had over 16 000 discharges accumulating more than 250 Gbytes of raw data (currently over 30 Mbytes per discharge). The centralized DIII-D databases and the associated support software described earlier provide the means to extract, analyze, store, and display reduced sets of data for specific physics issues. The confinement, stability, transition, and cleanliness databases consist of more than 7500 records of basic reduced diagnostic data datasets. Each database record corresponds to a specific snapshot in time for a selected discharge. Recently some profile datasets have been implemented. Diagnostic data are fit by a cubic spline or a parabola by the in-house energy code to provide density, temperature, radiated power, effective charge (Zeff), and rotation velocity profiles. These fits are stored in the profile datasets which are inputs for the onetwo code which computes transport data.
