Refraction and absorption measurements of a focused ECH beam

D.R. Roberts, D.C. Sing, R.F. Steimle1993年被引用 2Nuclear FusionIF 3出版社

Propagation of an outside launched, 60 GHz, TEM00 focused microwave beam that couples to the ordinary mode for electron cyclotron heating (ECH) in the Texas Experimental Tokamak (TEXT) is examined via transmission measurements at low power ( approximately 40 mW). For a plasma density profile of n(r)=n(0) exp(-r/22.5)2.9, refraction and absorption at the fundamental resonance are shown to remain in overall fair agreement with the results of simple geometrical optics (WKB) ray tracing and linear absorption optical depth models up to a wave cut-off density of nc=4.5*1013 cm-3. Further details of the propagation that include the consequences of beam self-diffraction are modelled using the beam propagation method. An excess of transmitted power (by a factor of 2-3 on-axis) was observed at the highest central densities, n(0)/nc >0.9, where the propagation is shown to become sensitive to weak short-scale-length variations in the core density profile

外部から入射され、電子サイクロトロン加熱(ECH)のための常波(ordinary mode)に結合する、60 GHz、TEM00集束マイクロ波ビームの伝搬を、低電力(約40 mW)での透過測定によって調べた。プラズマ密度分布 n(r)=n(0) exp(-r/22.5)2.9 に対して、基本共鳴における屈折と吸収は、波動遮断密度 nc=4.5*1013 cm-3 まで、単純な幾何光学(WKB)光線追跡と線形吸収光学的深さモデルの結果と全体的にほぼ一致することが示される。ビームの自己回折の影響を含む伝搬のさらなる詳細は、ビーム伝搬法を用いてモデル化される。最高中心密度 n(0)/nc >0.9 では、伝搬が中心部密度分布の弱い短スケール長変動に対して敏感になることが示されるが、透過電力の過剰(軸上で2〜3倍)が観測された。
