Abstract

The specific power deposited in plasma under on-axis electron-cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) is characterized by strong peaking, resulting in large-amplitude sawtooth oscillations. To analyze the global properties of plasma, instantaneous experimental profiles of the electron temperature should be averaged over time and space. In the present work, a modified canonical profile transport model for predictive calculation of such averaged profiles is proposed. As an example, the model is used to determine the parameters of plasma with ECRH in the T-15MD tokamak currently under construction.
