Impact of different heating and current drive mixes on steady-state scenarios for ITER

Impact of a range of different sets of heating and current drive mixes on the ITER steady-state scenarios are examined exploiting an iterative steady state solution procedure using a new fast transport solver FASTRAN utilizing the ONETWO and EFIT codes. There is trade off between Q and f{\_}NI,$_{ }$as in the I{\_}P scan (8 -- 10 MA): optimization of 8MA scenarios lead to f{\_}NI =100{\%} and Q \underline {$<$} 4.5, while optimization of 9-MA scenarios lead to f{\_}NI =95{\%} and Q \underline {$<$} 5.3 using day-1 baseline H{\&}CD capability, These values are close, but still somewhat short in simultaneously achieving the Q = 5 and f{\_}NI = 100{\%}. Upgrades of ECCD (with TORAY/CQL3D for parallel momentum conservation effects) considered include the Upper Steering Mirror (USM) and Equatorial Launcher Top Steering Mirror (EL-TSM) systems for current profile control and (2) doubling the total EC power to 40 MW. Effects of different density, density peaking, q{\_}min and transport models will also be discussed.
