Pellet induced Enhanced Confinement (PiEC) has been achieved with single pellet injection into NBI plasmas in TJ-II. In the 2021 autumn experimental campaign, PiEC plasmas were achieved with a single large pellet but further enhancement were achieved when additional pellets were injected (up to two additional pellets). This has demonstrated that the use of multi-pellets opens new NBI operating scenarios to achieve high confinement in TJ-II plasmas.
