Fuel recycling control in long pulse operation with full tungsten divertors in EAST tokamak
Fuel recycling control in long pulse discharges is studied in EAST tokamak with tungsten divertors by particle balance. Double null configuration, proper Resonant Magnetic Perturbation (RMP), divertor cryopumps and realtime lithium injection, are all very effective for recycling control. High heating power discharge leads to low recycling due to the enhancement of particle exhausting. High external gas injection is required in a low fuel recycling discharge to keep a constant density, and Dα emission is increased by external injection, therefore a higher Dα emission may indicate low fuel recycling for the same plasma density. Reproducible long pulse discharges of over 100 s with core electron temperature >10 keV, and 1056 s discharge with ∼1.5 MW heating power were obtained in the EAST 2021 campaign, fuel recycling was well controlled by divertor cryopumps and realtime lithium injection. The results provide a valuable reference for the high power and long pulse operation in future fusion reactors, such as ITER and CFETR.
