Abstract. Both the dynamic and equilibrium thermal responses of an L-mode
plasma to repetitive ECH heat pulses were measured and compared to predictions
from several thermal transport models. While no model consistently agreed with
all observations, the GLF23 model was most consistent with the perturbed
electron and ion temperature responses which may indicate a key role played by
electron modes in the core of these discharges. The IIF and MM models
performed well for the electrons while the IFS/PPPL model agreed with the
ions.
