“…Where not specified, in the following it is assumed 5% of H in deuterium plasmas. Simulations of these discharges with TORIC-SSFPQL [26,32], done under the assumption that the coupled RF power is completely absorbed by the plasma, show that close to the peak of ICRF absorption (ρ ≈ 0.4 on the LFS for AUG26621, and ρ ≈ 0.1, 0.3 on the HFS for AUG26620 and AUG26622, respectively) the average energy of ICRF-heated protons is about 50, 96 and 76 keV for AUG26621, AUG26620, and AUG26622, respectively. Because of the zero-banana-width assumption in SSFPQL equations, these values are somewhat overestimated.…”
