A tokamak pertinent analytic equilibrium with plasma flow of arbitrary direction

Plasma Physics 2019-12-30 v1

Abstract

An analytic solution to a generalized Grad-Shafranov equation with flow of arbitrary direction is obtained upon adopting the generic linearizing ansatz for the free functions related to the poloidal current, the static pressure and the electric field. Subsequently, a D-shaped tokamak pertinent equilibrium with sheared flow is constructed using the aforementioned solution.
