Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To improve millimeter-wave transmission efficiency of the electron cyclotron heating (ECH) system in the nuclear fusion plasma, we developed electromagnetic wave propagation simulation (time domain space difference method: FDTD). As research results, we developed a FDTD simulation code in visualization system for miter bend. This code is useful not only for miter bend but also to analyze the electromagnetic waves of the waveguide. Using this code, it was found that corrugated waveguide suppresses eddy currents. The results were compared with experiment of the heat distribution in the mirror of the miter bend. From this comarison, it was almost the same. Furthermore, it is improved to allow the calculation of the induced current. Then it was possible to simulate the electromagnetic wave propagation in a mitered bend and a mitered bend polarizer.
