• The results of global linear gyrokinetic simulations of residual flows carried out with the code EUTERPE in the TJ-II three-dimensional geometry are reported. The linear response of the plasma to potential perturbations homogeneous in a magnetic surface shows several oscillation frequencies: a Geodesic-acoustic-mode-like frequency, in qualitative agreement with the formula given by Sugama and Watanabe (2006 Plasma Phys. 72 825), and a much lower frequency oscillation in agreement with the predictions of Mishchenko et al (2008 Phys. Plasmas 15 072309) and Helander et al (2011 Plasma Phys. Control. Fusion 53 054006) for stellarators. The dependence of both oscillations on ion and electron temperatures and the magnetic configuration is studied. The low-frequency oscillations are in the frequency range supporting the long-range correlations between potential signals experimentally observed in TJ-II.
