Abstract

Unlike iterative approaches, noniterative equilibria reconstruction schemes are designed to keep two measured internal profiles fixed along a given chord while solving a sequence of linear differential equations, providing a unique and asymptotic solution to the Grad–Shafranov (GS) equation directly in laboratory coordinates. A noniterative algorithm is extended to handle plasma configurations that are not symmetric with respect to the tokamak midplane and then used to compute an equilibrium solution from an actual experimental data set. A number of issues concerning how available experimental data can be handled and provided as input to the GS solver in practical situations are also discussed.
