Abstract:The preliminary design study of the Alfvén wave system for the ETE spherical tokamak is presented. The main objective of the proposed RF system is generation of travelling Alfvén waves, which can be used for the study of the non-inductive current drive and the plasma heating in a wide range of operational regimes, which are specific for tokamaks with small aspect ratio R/a 1.2 − 1.5. The antenna system consists of four modules, which are separated by 90• in toroidal direction. Each module has two sets of RF cu… Show more
“…A preliminary plan of AWCD on the ETE spherical tokamak [15], in fact, has been proposed, but seems not to be actualized finally. However, its idea and design are very helpful for our AWCD program on the SUNIST spherical tokamak.…”
