摘要：
The response of transport in low density (line average (n) over bar approximate to 0.6 x 10(19) m(-3)) plasmas to electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECH) power, 100 kW less than or similar to Q(ECH) less than or similar to 400kW, is documented for the TJ-II Heliac-type stellarator. Radially resolved electron heat balance shows no significant differences between boron or lithium coating of the vacuum chamber walls. The main trends in electron heat transport are found to be similar to other stellarator/heliotron devices and are compatible with neoclassical calculations in the bulk of the plasma. According to our calculations the heat fluxes are anomalous near the edge, rho greater than or similar to 0.8 where rho is the normalized minor radius, but the uncertainties there are large. Particle transport in the density gradient region, rho approximate to 0.8, has little sensitivity to the variation of heating power and is compatible with neoclassical predictions. Neoclassical transport of particles and electron heat is found to be dominant in the gradient regions of typical ECH plasmas of the TJ-II Heliac.
