Up to now, the stable and reproducible discharges with divertor configuration have been obtained under the main plasma parameters of Ip=433 kA, BT=2.70 T, ne-6.0×10^19 m^-3 and the discharge duration -3.0 s, using the reliable feedback control.

Advanced scenario with weak positive/negative current shear, calculated by TRANSP codes using experimental data, is achieved by the central fuelling of the pellet injection. The supersonic molecular beam injection （SMBI） with liquid nitrogen temperature gas is used. It is proved that the low temperature SMBI can form the hydrogen cluster and penetrate into plasma more deeply and efficiently.

The impurity diffusion coefficient and convection velocity are determined by using laser blow-off system and transport code. In disruption studies, a new criterion for disruption prediction is given according to the MHD activity features and statistic analysis, and the plasma current quench time increases from about 5 ms to 20 ms with noble gas injection. The sawtooth character in on-axis ECRH experiment is investigated, and a persistent m= 1 oscillation induced by SMBI and pellet injection is found to be a thermal fluctuation instead of magnetic island.
