Ripple-induced thermal loss effect on plasma rotation is investigated in a set of Ohmic L-mode plasmas performed in Tore Supra, and comparisons with neoclassical predictions including ripple are performed. Adjusting the size of the plasma, the ripple amplitude has been varied from 0.5% to 5.5% at the plasma boundary, keeping the edge safety factor constant. The toroidal flow dynamics is understood as being likely dominated by turbulence transport driven processes at low ripple amplitude, while the ripple-induced toroidal friction becomes dominant at high ripple. In the latter case, the velocity tends remarkably towards the neoclassical prediction (counter-current rotation). The radial electric field is not affected by the ripple variation and remains well described by its neoclassical prediction. Finally, the poloidal velocity is of the order of the neoclassical prediction at high ripple amplitude, but significantly departs from it at low ripple.
