Recent results of H-mode studies on asdex
Description
In a comparative study of various confinement regimes the H-mode demonstrated the best performance. Confinement enhancement factors (above ITER 89-P L-mode scaling) in the range of 1.6 fH 2.8 have been achieved with values depending on the divertor configuration, the wall condition, ELM behaviour and the plasma ion spicies. Long-pulse H-phases, withELMs, of up to 3.5s with constant confinement time, recycling and impurity characteristics are archived. H* -mode operation is possible without a loss of current scaling at qa values as low as 2.2. The B-limit is the same with and without ELMs. Murakami parameters are similar in H-and L-modes.
