Comparison of plasma results in EBT-1 and NBT-1M

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6854090· OSTI ID:6854090
Plasma results from the ELMO Bumpy Torus (EBT-1) and Nagoya Bumpy Torus (NBT-1M) experiments are compared. Both devices have 24 mirror field coils arranged to form a torus, and both use 18-GHz electron cyclotron resonance heating power. The main difference is that NBT-1M is somewhat (approx. 30%) smaller than EBT-1. However, when plasma results are scaled to eliminate this size discrepancy, plasma results are found to be nearly equivalent in both bumpy tori.
