In Ion-cyclotron Resonance Heating
We determine the conditions under which the damping of the fast Alfven wave, used in the heating of tokamak plasmas, can be described by the geometrical optics approximations. Also, for these conditions, we derive an analytical formula which explicitly determines the amount of energy which is damped onto the plasma particles by the fast wave. The conditions for the validity of the geometrical o...
متن کاملIon Cyclotron Resonance Heating in The
Ion heating at the fundamental of the cyclotron resonance (1 M H z s 3 MHz) in a toroidal octupole magnetic field is found to be in good agreement with single particle, cold plasma theory at power levels PabrS 100 kW (E 5 100 Vlm) and ion temperatures kT, S 600 eV. Good penetration of the electric field is observed in the densest available plasmas (n7 x lo'* cmA3) with no evidence of parametric...
متن کاملIntegrated modeling for ion cyclotron resonant heating in toroidal systems
The deployment of high power radio frequency waves in the ion cyclotron range constitutes an important operational facility in many plasma devices, including ITER. Not only for pure heating of the plasma, i.e. Ion Cyclotron Resonant Heating (ICRH), but also for the generation of non-inductive current through Ion Cyclotron Current Drive (ICCD). We concentrate on minority species heating scenario...
متن کاملIon Cyclotron Resonance Heating in a Toroidal Octupole
A 1 MW� 2 msec pulse of rf power at the ion cyclotron frequency (2.6 MHz) has been used to heat the ions from < 1 eV to 350 eV in a toroidal octupole device. The ion temperature is limited by charge exchange loss and agrees quantitatively with theoretical predictions. No parametric decay waves, enhanced diffusion, or other deleterious effects except for a high neutral re flux are observed to a...
متن کاملSawtooth control in ITER using ion cyclotron resonance heating
Numerical modelling of the effects of ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) on the stability of the internal kink mode suggests that ICRH should be considered as an essential sawtooth control tool in ITER. Sawtooth control using ICRH is achieved by directly affecting the energy of the internal kink mode rather than through modification of the magnetic shear by driving localized currents. Conse...
