abstract = {For successful operation of Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) control
of plasma impurity content and fuel recycling is required.
This can be achieved by using wall conditioning methods.
During the first divertor operation campaign (OP1.2a) of
W7-X glow discharge conditioning (GDC), weekly in hydrogen
and daily in helium for impurity and hydrogen removal
respectively, was used in the absence of the magnetic field.
He electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) discharges
were applied for density control in hydrogen plasmas during
experimental days. The optimization of GDC and He ECRH wall
conditioning on W7-X are presented. Solutions for glow
discharge ignition problems are examined. The suitable He
– GDC parameters, i.e. anode current and neutral gas
pressure, are defined to keep the balance between maximum
possible hydrogen removal rate and minimum plasma – facing
component (PFC) erosion. Sequences of short He – ECRH
pulses, so-called pulse trains, has been successfully
implemented. The effect of pulse train main parameter
variation such as gas prefill, input power, pulse length,
duty cycle is described. The efficiency of single He
recovery discharges and pulse trains are compared. The
results of this work show significant improvement of wall
cleaning efficiency.},
