摘要
Ion Bernstein waves （IBWs） have been proposed to be useful for heating and improving transport in tokamak plasmas. An Ion Bernstein wave heating experiment using different frequency （27 MHz and 30 MHz） was carried out on HT-7 superconducting tokamak in recent experiments. At a frequency of 30 MHz, ne peaked and Ha dropped have been pervasively observed, Tp was improved by a factor of 2 - 4, and Te increased by a factor of 1 - 1.5. An obvious confinement of particle was observed during the IBW pulse. At 27MHz, both global and localized electron heating were observed depending on the location of the ion resonant layer by changing Bt. Central electron heating effect was obtained in the global heating mode and electron temperature strongly increased near the 2 ΩD resonant layer for localized heating mode.
