  7. Extra Slides

  8. 2005 First LSN NBI D Shot After 25 mg of Li Pellet Injection Exhibited Factor ~50% Decrease in Density Lower single-null divertor discharges, 0.45T, D2 gas fueling 3.5mg • 25 mg of Li pumping of edge density saturated after the 3 similar D discharges and returned to pre-Li wall conditions, as expected if most injected gas reacts with the deposited Li. • Rate of density rise is below NBI fueling rate. H. Kugel M. Bell

  9. Six Interesting Features from XP-828 • The (apparent) extreme efficacy of Li aerosol at increasing confinement • The extremely “square” Te and ne profiles seen during the NBI overdriven L-H transition • The reduced OH consumption during aerosol injection • The transient suppression of ELMs • The concomitant reduction in radiated power / Zeff • The lack of CS gas fuelling

  10. Li Li Another Tactic for Directing Li Ions - In This Case to the Lower Divertor Example: Shot 128279

  12. Camera View of Early Li Aerosol InjectionTaken at t ~ 60 ms

  13. The Subtle Difference Between 130386 and 130389 130386 @ 85 ms No Li 130389 @85 ms Early Powder

  14. Why a Double Null Discharge Would be Interesting Powder Injector Li Ions Head Preferentially for Upper Strike Points

  15. Aerosol Injection 10 mg/s

  16. Aerosol Injection 10 mg/s

  17. Early Powder Injection

  18. Early Li 2 sec shot

  19. Getting Toward the Center Stack ( or LLD) - Early (Using a “Splash Plate”) ~ 45 Deg Inverted Spoon ~ 45 Deg Flat Plate Present Design Flat Plate LLD

  20. Status of the Li Droppers Dropper #1: Tested and Installed on NSTX – pumping out before TIV opens (1 to 2 days) Dropper #2: Li powder degassed, vacuum housing baked out (10-8 Torr), dropper assembled but must be pumped down in the vacuum housing for 7 to 10 days without baking. Could be installed by 6/26/09 to 6/28/09 – depends on lab pump-out rate. Need to finish the XP-913 approval process
