Abstract
Performance tests of a module for lower hybrid waveguides were carried out at the CEA Cadarache RF Test Facility. For the experiments the test module was fabricated by JAERI, the transmission line of the test bed was modified and the connection waveguides were manufactured by CEA. As the results, the thermal treatment by baking at a higher temperature was the most effective for reducing outgassing during injection of high RF power. The outgassing strongly depended on the temperature of the test module, but was independent to initial temperature. The RF injection reduced outgassing. The outgassing rate decreased to a low level of 10{sup -6}-10{sup -5} Pa m{sup 3}/sec m{sup 2} (10{sup -9}-10{sup -8} Torr 1/sec cm{sup 2}) at 400degC after 450degC-baking. The gas injection did not affect outgassing before and during RF injection. The baking under H{sub 2} or D{sub 2} gas atmosphere were not so effective for reducing outgassing rate. The outgassing rate did not depend on input RF power densities. The temperature in central part of the test module saturated to be {approx}100degC by using of water cooling at a power level of 150 MW/m{sup 2} RF injection, and a neutral gas pressure decreased gradually.
