HL-2A托卡马克装置在中性束加热条件下获得了稳定的归一化环向比压(
$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ )大于2.5的等离子体, 并且实现了瞬态$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 3.05、归一化密度($n_{\rm{e,l}}/n_{\rm{e,G}}$ )$\sim$ 0.6、储能($W_{\rm{E}}$ )$\sim$ 46 kJ和高约束因子($H_{98}$ )$\sim 1.65$ 的高约束性能. 本文使用集成模拟平台OMFIT对$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 2.83和$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 3.05时刻的等离子体进行了集成模拟, 计算得到的$W_{\rm{E}}$ ,$n_{\rm{e,l}}/n_{\rm{e,G}}$ ,$H_{98}$ 和$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ 等与实验参数基本一致, 并通过计算发现两种情况下自举电流份额($f_{\rm{BS}}$ )分别约达到$ 45{\text{%}}$ 和$ 46{\text{%}}$ . 此外, 还进一步分析了HL-2A装置形成离子温度内部输运垒(ITB)的原因: 快离子和${\boldsymbol E}\times{\boldsymbol B}$ 剪切流使得芯部湍流输运被抑制, 改善了约束, 从而形成了离子温度ITB. 离子温度的ITB与H模边缘输运垒相互协同形成了高$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ 的等离子体.Tokamak is considered as the most promising experimental setup for achieving controllable nuclear fusion requirements. The parameter$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ is an important parameter for tokamak devices: high$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ benefits not only to plasma fusion but also to the enhancement of fusion reaction efficiency and the facilitation of steady-state operation. The HL-2A tokamak device has achieved stable plasma with$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ exceeding than 2.5 through neutral beam injection heating, and transiently reached$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 3.05, with a normalized density ($n_{\rm{e,l}}/n_{\rm{e,G}}$ ) of about 0.6, stored energy ($W_{\rm{E}}$ ) of around 46 kJ, and confinement improvement factor ($H_{98}$ ) of about 1.65. In this work, the integrated simulation platform OMFIT is used to analyze the plasma at$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 2.83 and$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ = 3.05, and the obtained$W_ {\rm{E}}$ ,$n_{\rm{e,l}}/n_{\rm{e,G}}$ ,$H_{98}$ ,$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ , etc. are consistent with the experimental parameters. The bootstrap current ($f_{\rm{BS}}$ ) can reach to$45{\text{%}}$ and$46{\text{%}}$ . At both of the above moments, there are ion temperature double transport barrier (DTB) generated by the coexistence of internal transport barrier (ITB) and edge transport barrier (ETB), while high$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ is usually related to DTB. In addition, the formation of ion temperature ITB in the HL-2A device is further analyzed, which is attributed to the dominance of turbulent transport in plasma transport, the suppression of turbulent transport in the core by fast ions and${\boldsymbol E}\times{\boldsymbol B}$ shear, and the resulting improvement in confinement, thereby ultimately leading to the formation of ion temperature ITB. The ITB of ion temperature and the ETB of H-mode synergistically contribute to the creation of high$\beta_{\rm{N}}$ plasma.-
