Type-I edge-localized modes (ELMs) have been mitigated at the JET tokamak using a static external n=1 perturbation field generated by four error field correction coils located far from the plasma. During the application of the n=1 field the ELM frequency increased by a factor of 4 and the amplitude of the D(alpha) signal decreased. The energy loss per ELM normalized to the total stored energy, DeltaW/W, dropped to values below 2%. Transport analyses shows no or only a moderate (up to 20%) degradation of energy confinement time during the ELM mitigation phase.
在JET托卡马克装置中,通过由位于远离等离子体处的四个误差场校正线圈产生的静态外部n = 1扰动场,I型边界局域模(ELM)已得到缓解。在施加n = 1场期间,ELM频率增加了4倍,D(α)信号的幅度减小。每个ELM的能量损失相对于总存储能量归一化后,即ΔW / W,降至2%以下的值。输运分析表明,在ELM缓解阶段,能量约束时间没有下降或仅适度下降(高达20%)。
