Abstract :
Construction of the 500 keV negative-ion-based NBI system (N-NBI) with its maximum capability of 10 MW and 10 s for NB current drive and plasma core heating in high-density plasmas in JT-60 was completed in March 1996. The neutral beam injection into JT-60 with N-NBI has been performed since then. One of the key issues in the injection was how to control the bending magnetic field for residual ion beams. In N-NBI for JT-60, a stray magnetic field from the tokamak was actively used for bending of the residual ion beams. Combination of the stray magnetic field from JT-60 and the magnetic field of the deflecting coils was controlled sufficiently to successfully deposit residual ion beams at a constant point on the ion dump surface. The deposited positive and negative beam profiles on the ion dump were measured with an array of thermocouples brazed on the dump surface. This report describes the performance test of bending the residual ion beams and the measurement of the heat load on the ion dump for JT-60 N-NBI experiments.
