The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) is a superconducting tokamak, which successfully achieved the first plasma discharge in 2006. The major radius of EAST plasma is 1.9m, and its central magnet field is 3.5T. In the past few years, EAST has made many achievements such as 60s double-null divertor configuration plasma and 1MA plasma. In 2016, 102 second long-pulse discharge with plasma center temperature of 5×107 degree and 0.4 MA plasma current. The steady-state H-mode plasma more than 60 seconds in the middle of October was also obtained, with further optimization of steady-state operation integrated control under long plus time scales. The H-mode plasma only with RF waves through coupling of LHWH, ECRH and ICRH and complete non-induced current drive was realized, which is an important reference of the operation for ITER;
For the engineering aspect, two sets of 4MW neutral beam injection (NBI), one set of electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) and lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) were installed to achieve more than 30MW total heating power. The upper divertor was updated to W-Cu divertor which consists of monoblock structure and tungsten armor that can withstand 10 MW•m-2 heat load. The high steady-state plasma operating mode of EAST and its experiment work under the condition of tungsten divertor will provide good reference for China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR). ITER will adopt RF low-power injection mode and active water-cooled tungsten divertor structure. EAST is one of the best superconducting tokamak in the world with these two features and long pulse operation capability. The stable operation mode will provide important reference for future fusion test reactors.
