Description
Small, low-aspect-ratio tokamak configurations are generated in a rotamak device an applied toroidal magnetic field. A rotating magnetic field is used to drive the toroidal plasma current. Configurations with toroidal fields ranging up to ∼200 G at the magnetic axis are studied. Typical parameters are Itor ∼2 kA, Bpol ∼50 G, qo ∼1-3, ne (peak) ∼1019 m-3, Te ∼12 eV for an RF input power of ∼40 kW. (author)

Pequenas configuracoes de tokamak de baixa razao de aspecto sao gerados em um dispositivo rotamak com um campo magnetico toroidal aplicado. Um campo magnetico rotativo e usado para direcionar a corrente de plasma toroidal. Configuracoes com campos toroidais superiores a ∼ 200G no eixo magnetico sao estudadas. Os parametros tipicos sao Itor ∼2KA, Bpol ∼50G, qo ∼1-3, ne (pico) ∼1019m-3, Te ∼12 eV para uma potencia de entrada de r.f. de ∼40 kW. (M.C.K.)Additional details
