Error field feedback control system in the Keda Torus eXperiment and open loop control experiment
2020
A feedback control system has been designed for the Keda Torus eXperiment device to achieve the following goals: (a) suppression of the error field at the poloidal gap, (b) three-dimensional plasma stability control, and (c) improvement of plasma discharge quality. The system consists of a boundary electromagnetic probe array, a field-programmable gate array, a linear power amplifier, and an active control coil array. The system adopts a compound control method that includes both active and passive control methods. To control the plasma, an active control coil array is used to generate a localized radial magnetic field as needed at two poloidal gaps of the device. In the open-loop control experiment, the active control coils near the poloidal gaps reduced the original error field and thus increased the plasma discharge current amplitude by 50% and effectively extended the plasma discharge duration.
