The lower hybrid (LH) power deposition and the current drive (CD) efficiency were assessed by the application of modulated LH power. Density and magnetic field scans were performed and the response of the electron temperature provided by the available electron cyclotron emission diagnostic was investigated by means of fast Fourier transform analysis. An innovative technique based on a comparison between modelled and experimental data was developed and used in the study. The LH waves are absorbed by fast electrons with energies of a few times the thermal one, causing a modification in the electron distribution function (EDF) by creating a plateau in the parallel direction. The phase of the temperature perturbations, ϕ, as well as the ratio between the amplitudes of the third and the main harmonics, δTe3/δTe1, are found to be strongly affected by the plateau of the EDF as the broader the plateau the larger |ϕ|, (ϕ < 0), and the smaller δTe3/δTe1 are. Transport and Fokker–Planck modelling was used to support this conclusion as well as to interpret the experimental data and hence to assess the LHCD efficiency and deposition profile. The results from the analysis are consistent with broad off-axis LH power deposition profile. For densities between 1 × 1019 and 4 × 1019 m−3, which is the accessibility limit at the highest magnetic field discharges, a gradual shift of the maximum of the power deposition to the periphery and a degradation of the CD efficiency was observed.

低混成(LH)波のパワー堆積と電流駆動(CD)効率は、変調されたLH波の印加によって評価された。密度および磁場スキャンが実施され、利用可能な電子サイクロトロン放射診断によって得られた電子温度の応答が、高速フーリエ変換解析を用いて調査された。モデル計算と実験データの比較に基づく革新的な手法が開発され、研究に適用された。LH波は、熱エネルギーよりも数倍高いエネルギーを持つ高速電子によって吸収され、平行方向にプラトーを形成することによって電子分布関数(EDF)を修正する。温度摂動の位相φ、ならびに第3高調波と基本波の振幅比δTe3/δTe1は、EDFのプラトーによって強く影響を受けることが見出された。プラトーが広いほど、|φ|(φ<0)は大きく、δTe3/δTe1は小さくなる。輸送およびフォッカー・プランクモデリングは、この結論を支持し、実験データを解釈するために用いられ、それによってLHCD効率とパワー堆積の評価が可能となった。解析結果は、広がったオフアクシスLHパワー堆積と整合的である。密度が1×10^19から4×10^19 m^-3の範囲(これは最高磁場放電におけるアクセシビリティ限界に相当する)では、パワー堆積の最大値が周辺部へ徐々にシフトし、CD効率の低下が観測された。
