TME applies a limited number of toroidal multipolar moments based on toroidal coordinates to treat a two-dimensional problem of axisymmetric plasma equilibrium. The plasma boundary reconstructed by TME is consistent with the results by using EFIT. The method is sufficiently reliable and fast for real time shape control.展开更多
