Description

Various models have been used to understand and improve the discharge behaviour of SINP tokamak, a small research tokamak. This has allowed us to achieve for the first time full designed parameters of this tokamak. To achieve this a low cost audio frequency discharge cleaning system using single turn primary was developed. The plasma current rise has been slowed down. A low cost soft- x-ray imaging system has shown very pronounced sawtooth oscillation in these discharges. (author). 7 refs, 7 figs
