摘要
The velocity-space distribution of the fast-ion loss in EAST neutral-beam injection (NBI)heating discharge is obtained both from Scintillator-based fast-ion loss detector (FILD) signalsand by ASCOT5 and FILDSIM simulations. The results of simulations are in good agreementwith the distribution of beam-ion losses measured with FILD of EAST and the correctness ofthe fast-ion loss distribution has been demonstrated. Simulations indicate that the beam-ionlosses observed by the FILD probe are attributed to the fast ions from both the high-field side(HFS) and the low-field side (LFS). However, the beam-ion losses from the HFS (associatedwith NBI1L) have not been observed experimentally due to the limited detecting range of theFILD probe. Therefore, an upgrade and modification of the FILD probe was carried out in 2022to enable the detection of fast-ion loss with smaller pitch angles. Comparative analysis isconducted in neutral-beam injection (NBI2R) discharges after the upgrade, which indicates thatthe velocity-space distribution of beam-ion losses from the HFS has strong agreement betweenexperimental measurements and simulation results. However, the experimental and simulatedresults of the velocity-space distribution of beam-ion losses from the LFS showsinconsistencies, primarily because the BBNBI module in the simulation does not consider thecontributions of boundary neutral particles to neutral-beam deposition (ionization reactions).These conclusions not only provide valuable references for improving the neutral-beamdeposition model but also establish a fundamental basis for further exploring the mechanisms offast-ion loss under various conditions on the EAST tokamak.
