Abstract
HL-2A is a divertor tokamak located at new site of Southwestern Institute of Physics (SWIP), Chengdu, China. It can be operated in double-null and single-null divertor with closed configurations. The effects of the divertor on impurity behaviors, MHD instabilities, transport, wall conditioning and divertor physics are key issues to be studied during the first step operation on HL-2A. Preliminary experiments with limiter and single null divertor configurations were carried out in 2003. Main parameters achieved are the plasma current 168 KA, duration time of 920 ms and plasma linear-averaged density of 1.7 × 10 19 m −3 . The impurities, especially of low Z , are clearly decreased during the divertor experiments.
