Abstract

A comparison is made between results of the profile control experiments on the JEPP T-II tokamak and those of the time evolution of tearing modes. Over a wide range of conditions, non-linear initial-value tearing-mode calculations are consistent with experimental results. In particular, the time scale of soft disruptions, as reflected in the negative Voltage spikes, given by the tearing-mode analysis, agrees with that obtained experimentally.
