Abstract

Transport simulation of ECRH H-mode experiments on HL-2A tokamak is carried out using ONETWO code, the GLF23 and PEDESTAL models, along with TORAY code for ECRH. It is found that the initial electron and ion temperature profiles affect L-H transition significantly, and larger initial temperature gradient at the edge plasma benefits the transition. The simulation results show that it is possible to achieve ECRH H-mode with appropriate initial electron and ion temperature profiles under present discharge conditions on HL-2A tokamak. In addition, the pedestal density, electron temperature and pedestal width are predicted, and the evolutions of electron and ion temperature profile are calculated.
