LHCD system (180 kW) EAST • 20 klystrons at 2.45 GHz with 100kW/each (2 MW) in CW are tested. • Launcher and transmission lines are designed and under fabrication. • Power supply has been completely installed. One set has been tested and used in HT-7. • Control and protection systems are being built.
ICRF system (30 kW) EAST • 1.5 MW will be available (30~110MHz, first for HT-7). • The antenna is under construction. • The liquid stub has been fabricated and used in HT-7. • The phase shifter has been fabricated. • The transmission line has been fabricated. • The control and protection system is being built.
Exp conditions in 2007 campaign (1) Full stainless steel in-vessel components, including liners, diverter plates, internal coils, RF antenna; (2) Two movable molybdenum (Mo) limiters installed at R = 2.235 m, with amax= 0.45 m; (3) About 15 basic diagnostics for first plasma study on EAST; (4) Plasma control system (PCS) built in collaboration with DIII-D; (5) RF systems at ICRF (30 kW) and at LHF (180 kW) for wall conditioning and discharge pre-ionization; (6) Wall conditioning: baking, GDC and RF discharges, boronization.

EAST First plasma on EAST • After several breakdown shots, plasma current was very smoothly ramped up to 150 kA at a rate of about 0.5MA/s by pre-programmed control and up to 220 kA after only a few more shots. Circular cross-section H plasma with Mo limiter on Sept.26, 2006. • To avoid impurity burn through, plasma density was relatively low, about 0.4~1.01019/m2. Strong HXR was observed. • Most disruptions were due to the shift of plasma position. Even for the worst disruption, the induced voltage at the ends of the PF coils was very low due to the shielding effect of the vessel, safe for PF coils.

Key issues for start up EAST • (1) Breakdown: null field, breakdown electric field, toroidal magnetic field, the pressureof operation gas • (2) Ramp-up: plasma position control, impurity, MHD instability
Optimization of null field EAST Vloop < 3V, Bt = 2T for breakdown
Breakdown Vloop and dIp/dt ramp-up rate 3.5 V < Vloop < 6.5 V 0.1 MA < dIp/dt < 0.65 MA/s
Start up with & w/o LHW EAST • In the break down phase (t<0.1 s), the difference of loop voltage is observed with and without the LH injection . • In the plasma current ramp-up phase (t>0.1 s), ramping rate was larger with the LH injection than without the LH injection.
