Study of Conditions for Obtaining Quasi-Stationary Scenarios in T-15 MD Tokamak

The study of conditions for obtaining quasi-stationary scenarios in the T-15MD tokamak is performed. Results of simulation and optimization of T-15MD regimes with a fully noninductive current drive using NBICD systems with the power of 6–8 MW, ECCD system with the power ~8 MW, and RFCD system with power up to 7–8 MW are presented. It is shown that, at the somewhat reduced value as compared to the basic value of the toroidal magnetic field B _t ~ 1.5 T in the T-15MD tokamak, discharges can be produced with a fully noninductive current of about 1 MA, plasma temperature of several keV, plasma density of about (3–7) × 10¹⁹ m^–3, and discharge duration of about 20 s. Such discharges are of interest for further experimental study.     

Stabilization of tearing mode by current drive

The major disruption limits the operation of present tokamaks. Experimental evidences point out that the growth of tearing modes or the magnetic islands is primarily responsible for the occurrence. Taking the non-inductive current drive effects into account, a set of 3D nonlinear equation is derived. It is shown from simulation that the growth of the magnetic island is suppressed effectively by RF current drive. It is consistent with recent experiments on the HL-1 tokamak in which the plasma is stabilized by an RF current drive.

Steady-state fully noninductive current driven by electron cyclotron waves in a magnetically confined plasma

A steady-state, fully noninductive plasma current has been sustained for the first time in a tokamak using electron cyclotron current drive only. In this discharge, 123 kA of current have been sustained for the entire gyrotron pulse duration of 2 s. Careful distribution across the plasma minor radius of the power deposited from three 0. 5-MW gyrotrons was essential for reaching steady-state conditions. With central current drive, up to 153 kA of current have been fully replaced transiently for 100 ms. The noninductive scenario is confirmed by the ability to recharge the Ohmic transformer. The dependence of the current drive efficiency on the minor radius is also demonstrated.
