Abstract

Encouraging results recently obtained with alternative ion cyclotron wall conditioning (ICWC) in the present-day tokamaks and stellarators have elevated ICWC to the status of one of the most promising techniques available to ITER for routine interpulse conditioning in the presence of the permanent high toroidal magnetic field. The paper presents a study of ICWC discharge performance and optimization of the conditioning output in the largest tokamak JET using the standard ICRF heating antenna A2 in a scenario envisaged at ITER full field, BT=5.3 T: on-axis location of the fundamental ICR for deuterium, ω=ωcD+. The perspective of application of the alternative technique in ITER is analyzed using the 3-D MWS electromagnetic code, 1-D RF full wave and 0-D plasma codes.
