摘要

Abstract An explosive burst excited by a neoclassical tearing mode (NTM) is one of the possible candidates for disruptive terminations in reversed magnetic shear (RMS) tokamak plasmas. For the purpose of disruption avoidance, numerical investigations have been implemented on the prevention of explosive bursts triggered by the ill-advised application of electron cyclotron current drive (ECCD) in RMS configuration. Under the situation of controlling NTMs by ECCD in RMS tokamak plasmas, a threshold in electron cyclotron driven current has been found. Below the threshold, not only are the NTM islands not effectively suppressed but a deleterious explosive burst could also be triggered, which might contribute to major disruption to tokamak plasmas. In order to prevent this ECCD from triggering explosive bursts, three control strategies have been attempted in this work and two of them have been recognized to be effective. One is to apply differential poloidal plasma rotation in the proximity of outer rational surface during the ECCD control process; the other is to apply two ECCDs to control NTM islands on both rational surfaces at the same time. In the former strategy, the threshold is diminished due to the modification of the classical tearing mode index. In the latter strategy, the prevention is accomplished as a consequence of the reduction of the coupling strength between the two rational surfaces via the stabilization of inner islands. Moreover, the physical mechanism behind the excitation of the explosive burst and the control processes by different control strategies have all been discussed in detail.
