Abstract
Fast Ti-deposition was applied in the gas-dynamic trap (GDT) facility in the regimes with 14–17.5 keV, 2.5–4 MW neutral beam (NB) injection to control gas recycling at the first wall and thereby reduce charge-exchange losses of energetic ions. The charge-exchange losses of the fast ions turned out to be much less than in former, non-conditioned discharges. The temporal and spatial variation of the neutral gas density was measured during typical shots and compared with the results obtained by means of a Monte Carlo transport code. The comparison of the numerical results with the experimental data shows that the recycling coefficient of the chamber wall which has been freshly coated by titanium is close to that of the pure metallic surface.
