摘要
The basic process of re-ionization loss was studied.In the drift duct there are three processes leading to re-ionization loss：the collision of neutral beam particles with the molecules of background gas,similar collisions with released molecules from the inner wall of the drift duct and the ferret-collisions among particles with different energy of the neutral beam.Mathematical models have been developed and taking EAST-NBI parameters as an example,the re-ionization loss was obtained within these models.The result indicated that in the early stage of the neutral beam injector operation the released gas was quite abundant.The amount of re-ionization loss owing to the released gas can be as high as 60%.In the case of a long-time operation of the neutral beam injector,the total re-ionization loss decreases from 13.7% to 5.7%.Then the reionization loss originating mainly from the collisions between particles of the neutral beam and the background molecules is dominant,covering about 92% of the total re-ionization loss.The drift duct pressure was the decisive factor for neutral beam re-ionization loss.
