Abstract
The Alborz tokamak program was started from 2012 at Amirkabir university of
technology – Iran. This device has been assembled recently and now the discharge tests
are in the process of getting started. The startup process in tokamak machines presents
unique challenges due to their characteristics. In the present study, a series of
simulations are carried out in Alborz tokamak to improve the startup to test whether the
proposed startup scenarios are feasible and appropriate. For this important goal, the
power supply modification and its influence on discharge are considered and
investigated in this work.
