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

详细

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.
