Abstract

The neutral beam (NB) system in ITER-FEAT provides heating and current drive (H&CD) by two NB injectors, each delivering 16.7 MW of D 0 beam to the plasma at 1 MeV. The NB system retains the basic concept of the ITER 1998 design, but there are certain modifications that will be described: the beam transmission is improved by a four beam channel design of the neutralizer and the RID. Also the layout of the NB injector integrated in ITER allows both on- and off-axis current drive. The improved performance of the NB system is discussed from the system efficiency and the current drive capability points of view.
