Abstract

A pedestal density limit was computed based on semianalytic modeling of experimental H-mode density profiles. It was found that the projected limit was near or above Greenwald density limit. Two separate models were developed and utilized. Results suggested that further increases in pedestal density could be achieved through control of the fueling profile.
