DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5344407· OSTI ID:5344407
The proposed CIT starts operation in the late 1990's with 20 MW of rf heating power. The tokamak and facility are to be designed to accommodate 50 MW auxiliary heating. The heating methods new being considered are ion cyclotron heating (ICH) and electron cyclotron heating (ECH). Aspects of these systems are described, and the choice of power level and type is discussed. 18 refs.
