Abstract
A series of experiments has recently been carried out in EAST under different plasma conditions to investigate the basic divertor performance, divertor and SOL screening efficiency and radiative divertor effect. Detached divertor plasmas have been achieved by density ramp-up. It is found that CIII emission from the low-field side (LFS) exhibits a strong dependence on poloidal locations and plasma operation regimes from methane (CH4) puffing experiments. In addition, the radiative divertor experiments by injection of mixed Ar (5.7% Ar in D2) into the outer divertor chamber reduce the peak heat flux by 50% at the outer target plate, which also reduce the divertor plasma temperature. The in–out heat flux distribution asymmetry is improved.
