초록

In this paper, the 100 % non-inductive current drive scenarios are addressed for the steady-state operation on KT-2 tokamak, with the profile control using fast wave and lower hybrid wave as the external tools. Considering the stability, the well-aligned current profiles with a reversed-shear and $q_{min}$ > 2.0 has been favor-able in high ${\beta}_{p}$ plasma, together with a possibly higher bootstrap current fraction. Therefore, the effects of the auxiliary heating power profile on the control of MHD favorable current profile are evaluated in detail.
