HT-7U Magnetic Diagnostic System Magnetic probes are used to measure poloidal magnetic field, and flux loops are for poloidal magnetic flux measurement. ASIPP HT-7U 1.

HT-7U Flux/voltage loops cover all 16 segments in the horizontal plane (toroidal direction). 31 flux loops are located inside the vacuum vessel expect the horizontal window and upper and down windows near the divertor.

ASIPP HT-7U 2. Plasma Current Rogowasky Coil Rogowski coil is a solenoidal coil whose ends are brought around together to form a torus. It is used to measure plasma current One set include 2 Rogowski coils One will be set around plasma inside vacuum wall. Another one will be set outside the vacuum wall. Three sets will be set in different toroidal directions.

3. Saddle/locked-mode coils ASIPP HT-7U One set of saddle/locked-mode coil on the inside vacuum vessel wall

ASIPP HT-7U These coils are used to measure poloidal magnetic flux and detect the non-rotating or slowly rotating of magnetic perturbations. The locked-mode coil will be placed on the outer mid-plane inside the vacuum vessel. 5 saddle coils will be placed in the upper and 5 in down positions near the divotors. Six to eight arrays will be installed in different toroidal directions symmetrically.

4. Diamagnetic Loops Diamagnetic loops system includes measurement loops, compensation coils and associated processing electronics. ASIPP HT-7U It is used to measure plasma βp and plasma energy. Three sets are going to be mounted on the inner of the vacuum vessel wall.

ASIPP HT-7U Requirement The very small signal need to improve the signal to noise ratio. Position must be vertical direction of the toroidal field strictly to decrease the influence of toroidal field. The diamagnetic loop and compensation coil must be parallel. Both of them set on the same framework. The position of system need to be adjusted to minimize the influence of the poloidal field. Use ceramic or BN as framework.

ASIPP HT-7U four sets of Rogowski coils are installed behind the divertor tiles in each toroidal location. The coils are installed to round the roots of the divertor tiles. Four groups of these coils will be set in different toroidal positions 5. Measurement of Halo current A poloidal halo current due to VDE is observed in most large tokamak experiment. During plasma disruptions, a current flow directly into a vacuum vessel from plasma. It will produce an intense electromagnetic force on the in- vessel components.
