摘要:
In negative-ion-based neutral beam injection (NBI) systems for the large helical device (LHD), beams must be transported over 13 m from theH−ion source to the injection port. In order to clarify beam deflection by the electron deflection magnets set in a beam extraction grid (EG) and to control beam transport direction, we analyzed beam trajectories. The physics of the beam deflection was studied with theoretical calculations and the deflection angle was estimated by 3D beam trajectory simulation. The evaluated deflection angle was 10 mrad in the opposite direction of the electron deflection when the maximum magnetic field on the beam axis was 480 G and the beam energy was 83.2 keV. The electrostatic lens effect on the beam deflection at the EG exit was estimated to be larger than the magnetic field effect. This deflection was reduced to 2 mrad by a 1.3 mm displacement of the grounded grid (GG) aperture, a result in agreement with experimental results of a1/3-scale model for the LHD ion source. The maximum GG aperture displacement of the LHD ion source was designed as 3.4 mm to reduce the deflection and to focus multibeamlets using the simulation. We have developed the ion source with this design. The targeted performance is a production ofH−beams of 40 A(40 mA/cm2),180 keV. ©1998 American Institute of Physics.
