An experimental study of the local island divertor (LID) was done in the Compact Helical System (CHS). The separatrix of an m/n = 1/1 magnetic island, formed at the edge region by additional magnetic field was utilized as a divertor configuration. The main purpose of this configuration is to control the neutral particle recycling. The reduced line averaged density and radiation power loss, and improved energy confinement were obtained under an LID configuration.
