The Chinese first quasi-axisymmetric stellarator (CFQS), which will be the first quasi-axisymmetric (QA) stellarator in the world, is now under construction. The primary task of the CFQS project is to realize a QA configuration and to examine its physical properties. Based on this task, two important issues were investigated in this work in order to estimate the robustness of the CFQS design from a physical perspective. One was the toroidal field (TF) ripple due to the discreteness of modular coils (MCs) which could potentially degrade the charged particle confinement in the CFQS configuration. The other was a possible MC misalignment in the assembly that would affect the magnetic field and charged particle confinement in the CFQS. Moreover, since the stellarator symmetry might be broken by the MC misalignment, such a case was also investigated in this work. By performing a magnetic field line tracing and charged particle orbit tracing calculation, it was found that the TF ripple does not affect the confinement property significantly and the magnetohydrodynamics equilibrium was robust against possible MC misalignments. These results are helpful in defining the reasonable tolerance of assembly accuracy. |
