ASIPP 25 Outline 25  Introduction  H-mode access & power threshold  ELM characteristics, energy loss and divertor power load  Active control of giant ELMs  Long pulse H-mode over 30 s in EAST  Summary and conclusion

ASIPP  Significant progress has been made on H-mode & ELMs toward long pulse operations in EAST on both technol. & phys. fronts. Various ELM dynamics and their behaviors have been characterized. LHCD leads to edge plasma ergodization, mitigating ELM transient heat load and broadening the divertor footprint. LHCD + SMBI allows control of SS target heat flux distribution by regulating divertor conditions. H-mode access in EAST favors the divertor configuration with ion B×  B drift away from the X-point, in contrast to other tokamaks. Achieved repeatable, long-pulse H-mode over 30 s successfully.  EAST is being upgraded with ITER-like W mono-block divertor and more than 20 MW CW H&CD, offering an exciting opportunity and great challenge for H-mode studies.
