The wave propagates with fixed ky, kz, and ω and with kx(x) determined through the local dispersion relation, the parameters of which are functions of x. The WKB method can be extended to three dimensions: , where is a function of position such that , with k satisfying the local dispersion relation. The direction of energy flow is given by the group velocity . The vector k is determined by a dispersion relation of the form: and the fact that along the ray path: The ray tracing equations can be given by: 理论以及数值模拟方法介绍——全波解方法 TORLH Spectral gap problem [*]P.T. Bonoli, IEEE Trans. Plasma Sci. 12,95(1984) [#]N.J. Fisch, PRL, 41,873(1978) Motivations of the following works: The spectral gap for LHW in EAST is expected to be very large, and the LHW is in a low single pass absorption regime, which poses a challenge for the simulation of LHCD in EAST device with large aspect ratio. Study of the Spectral gap problem in EAST LHCD using ray-tracing (GENRAY) LHW undergoes multiple passes before toroidal effects give rise to sufficient up-shift in the parallel wavenumber Simulation results shows that the spectral gap in EAST LHCD is large and the Landau damping relies very much on the up-shift in the parallel wavenumber due to the toroidal effects, since the power is not able to be absorbed on-axis where the temperature is higher but the poloidal field ~0. Comparisons between the GENRAY and the TORLH simulation for the LHW in EAST for the Maxwellian case Maxwellian electron distribution function assumed for both the GENRAY
