Abstract The planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF)/Mie scattering technique has been established as an effective method for measuring the Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) distribution in dense fuel sprays. This typically utilized a 266 nm laser. However, strong absorption of wavelengths ranging from to 274 sprays affected detection Mie signals. Therefore, it was proposed use excitation and 532 radiation In this study, look-up table (LUT) created by correlating PLIF/Mie ratio with using Phase...
A stationary edge-localized mode (ELM)-absent H-mode regime, with an electrostatic edge coherent (ECM) which resides in the pedestal region, has been achieved EAST tokamak recently. This regime allows operation of a nearly fully noninductive long pulse (>15 s), exhibiting relatively high and good global energy confinement near 1.2, excellent impurity control. Furthermore, this is mostly obtained 4.6 GHz lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) or counter-current neutral beam injection (NBI), plus...
A quasi-coherent mode (QCM) was measured by the tangential CO2 laser collective scattering diagnostic at high plasma electron density during both enhanced Dα/small edge-localized (ELM) and ELM-free H phases in Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST). results from only local oscillator prove that QCM is far-forward mode.

A highly reproducible spontaneous non-inductive low recycling no-ELM regime has been achieved in the EAST superconducting tokamak with water-cooled tungsten divertor and molybdenum first wall. The salient feature is that after L-H transition, emission intensity, neutral pressure separatrix electron density all decrease, amplitude of ELMs decreases simultaneously until they disappear completely. This scenario exhibits a distinct threshold, which dependent on plasma current wall condition....
High-confinement (H-mode) plasma was achieved by injecting frozen deuterium pellets in the experimental advanced superconducting tokamak (EAST). Interesting phenomena of simple and two-stage low–high confinement (L–H) transitions are observed EAST with radio frequency heating after pellet injection. The results L–H induced discussed detail different theories. It is found that injection can reduce power threshold H-mode. Furthermore, pellet-induced edge density gradient an important parameter...
The core microturbulence (, ) provided by a tangential CO2 laser collective scattering system on the EAST tokamak, in low (L) and high (H) confinement mode regimes respectively, are presented. We report change of characteristics from L-mode to H-mode: firstly, spectrograms show redistribution frequency domain after L–H transition; secondly, time evolution integrated spectral power displays that amplitude H-mode is much larger than L-mode; thirdly, cross-correlation time-frequency spectrum...

The formation of radial electric field Er in the tokamak edge region is calculated based on collisionless ion orbit loss. loss generates a negative Er, which turn affects As result, can saturate at either low or high value, depending plasma parameters. When temperature higher than threshold, self-sustaining growth both and found, leading to saturation value milliseconds. This mechanism provides possible explanation for strong during transition from (L) (H) confinement regime observed plasmas.
