l=1 helical coil experiments on Tokoloshe tokamak

  • 1. Atomic Energy Corporation, Pelindaba (South Africa)

Description

A set of complete, resonant, helical windings (l=1,2,3) has been installed on Tokoloshe (R/a=.52m/.24m, BT=.6T, Ip>100kA). The l=1 coil has a winding law of the form θ=φ+40o sinθ chosen to minimize the 3/1 sideband, and which gives a 2/1 satellite island of approximately one third the size of the primary 1/1 island. Other sidebands are small. In this paper the first experimental results are presented. (author) 3 refs., 5 figs
