Abstract
D-3He reactor has a great advantage of neutron-poor operation, but it requires higher-beta value and higher bootstrap current fraction than D-T reactor. In this paper, we investigated self-consistent plasma pressure and current profiles in the case of a positive magnetic shear mode (parabolic temperature profile) and a negative magnetic shear mode (ITB temperature profile) using TOTAL-T code including Cytran module. In a negative magnetic shear mode, toroidal beta value βT ∼ 52.4 % and bootstrap current fraction fbs ∼ 0.93 was obtained in a plasma with aspect ratio 1.77, plasma major radius 6.2 m, toroidal field 4.2 T and plasma current 49.3 MA.
