摘要
In HL-2A, an inverse sawtooth oscillation is observed with a long-lasting m/n = 1/1 mode during ECRH phase with power deposition inside sawtooth inversion radius (inner-deposited ECRH), while a normal sawtooth instead appears when the ECRH power is deposited outside sawtooth inversion radius (outer-deposited ECRH). Aluminum is then injected as a trace impurity with laser blow-off (LBO) method into the inner-and outer-deposited ECRH phases of HL-2A discharges to investigate the effect of ECRH on impurity transport. Temporal behavior of soft x-ray (SXR) array signals is analyzed with a 1D impurity transport code, and radial structures of impurity transport coefficients are obtained. The result shows that the radial transport of Al ions is strongly enhanced during the inner-deposited ECRH phase. In particular, an outward convection velocity is developed with positive values of 0 <= V(rho) <= 3.8 m s(-1) in rho <= 0.5, while the convection velocity is inward in rho >= 0.6. In the outer-deposited ECRH discharge, on the other hand, the convection velocity takes a big negative value in rho <= 0.4 and close to zero at rho similar to 0.6. In ohmic discharges, an inward V(rho) always appears in the whole plasma radii and gradually increases toward the plasma edge (-3.2 m s(-1) at rho = 1). The simulation result also indicates that centrally-peaked Al ion density profiles presented in the outer-deposited ECRH discharge can be flattened by the inner-deposited ECRH. Modification of impurity transport is discussed in the presence of long-lasting m/n = 1/1 MHD mode.
