Plasma build-up and heating of net-current-free plasmas in W VII-A was investigated by ECRH. Experiments were performed at two ECR-frequencies (28 and 70 GHz) and different heating scenarios were investigated such as first harmonic ordinary mode heating and second harmonic extraordinary mode heating. The basic effects predicted by theory, i.e. localized wave absorption and optical thickness of the plasma were verified. The electron heat conduction was found to be governed by neoclassical losses in the plasma core for high enough temperatures, whereas enhanced losses have to be assumed in the outer plasma regions. Generation of a target plasma with sufficient parameters to allow further heating by NBI was successfully demonstrated. Configuration studies showed a beneficial influence of small shear on the confinement, where internal currents have to be taken into account. |
