Optimum confinement is realized in Wendelstein 7-AS by wall conditioning and by properly adjusting the parameters determining the magnetic field configuration. The effective heating of net current free plasmas by ECRF and neutral beam injection (NBI) involves different plasma parameters and transport regimes. Stationary plasmas are generally produced by ECRF, whereas density and impurity control is a severe problem during NBI. This has initiated different kinds of impurity and particle control scenarios.
