摘要: A simple, paradigmatic model of long‐wavelength drift wave turbulence in the presence a sheared poloidal flow is analyzed detail. Linear theory predicts that velocity shear induces strong stabilizing effect by shifting eigenmode away from k⋅B=0 resonant surface, thereby enhancing ion damping. However, multiple‐helicity numerical calculations indicate has little or no on saturated fluctuation levels. Analysis suggests this result related to incidence spiky, radially intermittent profile turbulent levels, induced low‐q mode rational surfaces, and occurs when diffusivity exceeds product diamagnetic frequency gyroradius squared. An analytical explains observed suppression magnetic damping presented.
