Calculation of Asymmetry factor using the Solution of Equilibrium Problem

Abstract

In this work we presented a theoretical calculation of the asymmetry factor (Shafranov parameter) by solving the simplest Grad–Shafranov Equation (GSE) with the  Solove’v assumption for a low-beta and large-aspect-ratio tokamak with a circular cross section.  In this paper we calculated the current-independent relation for the asymmetry factor (Shafranov  parameter).
