Particle confinement improvement with current ramp in the HL-1M tokamak
- 1. Southwestern Inst. of Physics, Chengdu (China)
Description
Particle confinement with current ramp is investigated in the HL-1M tokamak. The ratio of particle confinement time to energy confinement time is used to determine confinement improvement. It increases a factor of 3 after the current rises twofold. An optimization density range to improve particle confinement is (1.5-3.5) x 1019m-3. Particle confinement improvement during current ramp-up is beneficial to the startup of fusion reactors
