  2. Overview • AIM : Perform a test case of a control loop workflow under Kepler/ITM including • A controller designed with the aid of a control toolbox (e.g. Scicos) • A physics code developed under ITM (e.g. the free boundary equilibrium code CEDRES++) • TEST CASE : ITER plasma shape control (almost circular plasma to begin with to avoid vertical instability specific issues) dVPoloidal Field Coils Dgapref Multivariable controller MHD equilibrium evolution dgap e + - Test case reference MHD equilibrium (flux contour plot from CEDRES++) ITER limiter plasma

  3. Outline • Feedback control design • Control oriented (linear) plasma shape response model identification using the CEDRES++ free boundary equilibrium code • Multivariable PID controller tuning under SCICOS • Qualification under Kepler/ITM of the control loop workflow • Preparation of the Kepler workflow • Integration of the controller developed under Scicos (using the Scicos C code generator with new specific developments to produce a Kepler actor) • Integration of the CEDRES++ actor • Kepler/ITM Workflow development issues, present status and future plans

  9. Kepler/ITM workflow development issues, present status • Main difficulties met during the Kepler/ITM workflow development • FC2K for C++ codes (versioning 4.4b, 4.4c ..., single slice tag selection, actor with the same CPO as input and output - with different occurences – still to be checked, etc.) • Bugs in CPO content and UAL collector actor (we thought the CEDRES++ actor didn’t work – output CPO seemed to be empty – but afterwards we found that the bug was within the CPO content actor ...) • Problem in the definition of DEMUX actor output Kepler variable type : seems to be frozen to general, type conflict presently resolved using a patch (use of a Kepler expression actor to change type to double !) • Sharing of new actors is not that easy

  10. Future plans • To be done • 1. Make the test case workflow fully ITM data structure consistent (remove remaining Kepler variables, except within controller, test time evolution on final workflow, use ualcollector to save data, etc.) • Hope fully for the ITM general meeting mid September • Upgrade the test case workflow to a fully consistent plasma shape control loop using a dynamic version of the CEDRES++ code • Hopefully for the end 2010 • Coupling with a transport code (p and ff’ function evolving in time) • Year 2011
