2 Abstract A full wave simulation code based on Finite Element Method (FEM) was developed to solve LH waves in tokamaks 1. The FEM approach allows a seamless handling of the antenna, first wall, SOL, divertor and core regions. In the region of plasma inside of the separatrix, electron landau damping is modeled by means of an iterative procedure. The code has been recently coupled to a bounce averaged Fokker Planck solver, which self consistently calculates the electron 2D distribution function resulting from the balance between collisions and RF quasilinear diffusion (DQL) in a toroidal geometry. The evaluation of the DQL term from the full wave fields has been done by integration of the momentum equation of test particles. Results will be presented for the Alcator C-Mod tokamak. 1 S.

3 Introduction Background Why full-wave based simulations? Modeling LH by ray tracing has several longstanding issues: WKB requires K K << 1 which for LH waves in Tokamak plasmas is questionable: at low densities (small K ) in fast changing density (big K) near cutoffs (P ) near caustics ( K r ) Ambiguity in the launched spectrum ray has to start inside the cutoff finite height of waveguide Impossible to get direct evaluation of the electric field GENRAY simulation by Greg Wallace O.

S a (t) is the particle source term which is used to conserve the momentum which is lost onto the background Maxwellian plasma. Hence we need to solve a time dependent integro partial-differential equation in the 2D velocity space. O.

Comparison with Ray-tracing with 1D FP and GENRAY with CQL3D Comparison with TORIC-LH with CQL3D As an intermediate step we could assume that the deposition profile of 1D FP and 2D BAed FP are the same. Hence, proceed as follows: Compute E field using iterative routine coupled to 1D FP Assume 2D effects do not significantly affect power deposition profile Take E from 1D FP iteration and evaluate current profile using 2D BAed FP First comparison with experimental current profile In the long term: Complete integration with 2D FP Development of hard-xray synthetic diagnostic for direct comparison with experiment O.
