Electron cyclotron heating assisted start-up experiments in J-TEXT [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023
Electron cyclotron heating (ECH) breakdown and burn-through assist has been adopted to make the ITER start-up, which uses a low toroidal electric field of about 0.3 V/m, more robust.

Very high-resolution infrared imagery of misaligned tungsten monoblock edge heating in the WEST tokamak

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2021
Fourteen ITER-like plasma-facing units (PFUs) made of bulk tungsten were installed in the WEST tokamak divertor. Five of which were misaligned with their poloidal leading edges (LEs) exposed to the plasma heat flux: two sharp-edge PFUs and three ...

Plasma exposure of a pre-damaged ITER-like plasma facing unit in the WEST tokamak: in-situ and post-mortem measurements

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2023
The consequences of tungsten (W) cracking on divertor lifetime and plasma operation are high priority issues for ITER. One actively cooled ITER-like plasma facing unit (PFU) has been pre-damaged in a High Heat Flux (HHF) facility before its installation ...

OEDGE modeling of far-SOL tungsten impurity sources and screening in WEST

Nuclear Materials and Energy, 2022
The plasma background and impurity transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the WEST tokamak are modeled for three discharges over a Psep power scan ranging between 1.5 and 2.35 MW. An extended modeling grid is used to investigate far-SOL sourcing from
