  2. ABSTRACT(1) • The electron density diffusion coefficient was studied during IBW heating and Ohmic heating experiment in the HT-7 tokamak. The frequency of IBW was30MHz and the injected power was 130 kW. An improved confinement mode was observed during IBW heating in the HT-7. The peaked density profile was formed gradually, and the Ha radiation intensitywas decreased abruptly. A five-channel far-infrared (FIR) hydrogen cyanide ( HCN ) laser interferometer was used to • measure the electron density profile.

  3. ABSTRACT(2) • The evolution of the density profile and the softX ray intensity profile were studied during the improved confinement phase. The electron density diffusion coefficient was studied carefully for IBW heating discharges. The results were compared with Ohmic heating plasma and with different toroidal field Bt (2.0 T and 1.8 T). For 30 MHz frequency of IBW heating, the higher Bt leads the lower electron density diffusion coefficient at the region of r/a > 0.6 in the HT-7.

  21. Conclusions • 1. an improved confinement mode was induced by the IBW heating in the HT-7 tokamak. The electron density was peaked, the Soft X ray intensity went up gradually, and the Ha radiation intensity dropped suddenly during IBW heating. • 2. It is observed that the density diffusion coefficient during IBW heating is much lower than that of Ohmic heating plasma in the HT-7. • 3. It is also observed that the higher field Bt(2.0T) plasma produces a lower electron density diffusion coefficient in the IBW heating discharges.
