Description

The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) simulations are carried out for neutral beam injection (NBI) in L- and H-mode plasma using the transport code ONETWO and the Monte Carlo code NUBEAM. The results predicted with different beam energy injections are presented and analyzed. The heating efficiency, shine-through power loss, current drive, beam ion trapping fraction and neutron emission with respect to different beam energy and discharge modes are discussed and some guidelines are provided for future experiments with NBI on EAST.
