Abstract

A substantial transport reduction by the turbulence driven E×B flows is investigated in three-dimensional non-linear gyrokinetic simulations of microturbulence in magnetically confined toroidal plasmas. The effective shearing rate for the time dependent E×B flow is analyzed. Results for E×B shear analysis is studied using linear gyrokinetic microinstability rotation models.
