The main sources of energy transport are instabilities due to fluctuations in magnetic fields, electric fields, and plasma density and/or temperature gradient. Although many theoretical models have been introduced to describe anomalous transport mechanisms, none of the proposed models, alone, provides a satisfying description of the experimental data. In recent years, there has been a great interest in the theoretical multiple mode tokamak transport model. In this study, we develop methods for testing models which contain a linear combination of several theoretical transport fluxes, namely, drift waves, resistive ballooning, and rippling modes added to a fixed level of neoclassical transport. The purpose of this work is to calibrate the proposed model against existing L-mode energy confinement time data. Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-17T22:36:15Z (GMT).
