Ice pellet injection is performed in the heliotron LHD (Large Helical Device) [1,2]. The pellets are injected in short series with up to 8 individual pellets. Parameter variations are performed for the pellet ice isotopes, the LHD magnetic configurations, the heating scenario, and some others. These experiments are performed in order to find out, whether deeper fuelling can be achieved with series of pellets compared to single pellets. An increase of the fuelling efficiency is expected since pre-cooling of the plasma by the first pellets within a series could help for deeper penetration of the later pellets in the same series. In addition these experiments have to show up, which boundary conditions must be fulfilled to optimize that technique. The high-field side injection of pellets, as proposed for deep fuelling in a tokamak, will not be feasible with the same efficiency in a stellarator or heliotron, because there the magnetic field gradient is smaller than in a tokamak of comparable size. Hence, too shallow pellet fuelling, in particular in a large device or a fusion reactor, will be an issue that can be overcome only by extremely high pellet velocities, or other techniques that will have to be developed in the future. It turned out that the fuelling efficiency can be enhanced by injection of a series of pellets, however further investigations will be needed in order to optimize this approach to deep particle fuelling.
