Abstract
An ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) system has been designed, fabricated indigenously and commissioned on Tokamak Aditya. The system has been commissioned to operate between 20-0 and 47-0 MHz at a maximum power of 200 kW continuous wave (CW). Duration of 500 ms is sufficient for operation on Aditya, however, the same system feeds the final stage of the 1-5 MW ICRH system being prepared for the steady-state superconducting tokamak (SST-1) for a duration of 1000s. Radio frequency (RF) power (225 kW) has been generated and successfully tested on a dummy load for 100s at 30-0 MHz. Lower powers have been coupled to Aditya in a breakdown experiment. We describe the system in detail in this work. © Printed in India.
