Abstract
TFTR pellet injection results reported by Schmidt (1985) have been extended to higher density and n tau in plasmas limited by a graphite inner-wall belt limiter. Increased pellet penetration and larger density increases were achieved by operation at reduced plasma current (1.6 MA) and minor and major radius (70 cm and 235 cm). Under these conditions, beam heating results have been extended to 7 MW.Keywords
