Description

In response to recent upgrade of the raytracing code for the electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECH) in LHD, transient electron thermal transport is reanalyzed. The upgraded code LHD Gauss-U takes into account the oblique injection of the ECH ray to magnetic field line. The obtained results show reduced transport hysteresis widths by up to ∼20% where the heating absorption is less significant, but qualitative features of the transport hysteresis reported in previous studies are found to be preserved.
