IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishUp to 1.5 MW of fast wave (FW) power has been successfully coupled to the core of ELMing H-mode discharges with βN˜2.5 in conjunction with ˜7 MW of neutral beam injection and 1.5 MW of electron cyclotron (EC) heating. FW core heating efficiency is observed to be comparable to that of an equal amount of incremental EC power, as expected with first-pass FW absorption on core electrons of 76%. Antenna loading is in quantitative agreement with modeling when edge density profiles measured with a reflectometer adjacent to the antenna are used in the model. Local deuterium puffing is used in some cases to increase the loading and hence the coupled power. Comparison of gas puffing and other techniques to increase the antenna loading are evaluated with respect to core plasma performance. Extension of the coupled FW power levels towards 3.5 MW is projected.

| Abstract: | Up to 1.5 MW of fast wave (FW) power has been successfully coupled to the core of ELMing H-mode discharges with βN˜2.5 in conjunction with ˜7 MW of neutral beam injection and 1.5 MW of electron cyclotron (EC) heating. FW core heating efficiency is observed to be comparable to that of an equal amount of incremental EC power, as expected with first-pass FW absorption on core electrons of 76%. Antenna loading is in quantitative agreement with modeling when edge density profiles measured with a reflectometer adjacent to the antenna are used in the model. Local deuterium puffing is used in some cases to increase the loading and hence the coupled power. Comparison of gas puffing and other techniques to increase the antenna loading are evaluated with respect to core plasma performance. Extension of the coupled FW power levels towards 3.5 MW is projected. | |
