摘要
A newly designed divertor Langmuir probe diagnostic system has been installed in a rare closed divertor of the HL-2A tokamak and steadily operated for the study of divertor physics involved edge-localized mode mitigation,detachment and redistribution of heat flux,etc.Two sets of probe arrays including 274 probe tips were placed at two ports(approximately 180°separated toroidally),and the spatial and temporal resolutions of this measurement system could reach6 mm and 1μs,respectively.A novel design of the ceramic isolation ring can ensure reliable electrical insulation property between the graphite tip and the copper substrate plate where plasma impurities and the dust are deposited into the gaps for a long experimental time.Meanwhile,the condition monitoring and mode conversion between single and triple probe of the probe system could be conveniently implemented via a remote-control station.The preliminary experimental result shows that the divertor Langmuir probe system is capable of measuring the high spatiotemporal parameters involved the plasma density,electron temperature,particle flux as well as heat flux during the ELMy H-mode discharges.
