Toroidal Alfvén eigenmodes (TAEs) destabilized by energetic ions in tokamak plasmas are simulated with the new simulation model. Energy channeling from energetic ions to thermal ions through Alfvén eigenmodes (AEs) is demonstrated by the simulation. The distribution function fluctuations and the resonance condition are analyzed for both thermal ions and energetic ions. The strong energy transfer between the particles and the AE and the strong particle transport occur when the following conditions are satisfied at the resonance location in phase space: (1) the poloidal resonance number is close to the poloidal mode number of the AE, (2) the AE has a substantial amplitude, (3) the distribution function has a substantial gradient along the $E^{^{\prime}} = \textrm{const.}$ line, where $E^{^{\prime}}$ is a conserved variable for the wave-particle interaction. While the distribution function fluctuations for energetic ions are consistent with the resonance condition with the TAEs, the distribution function fluctuations for thermal ions do not satisfy the resonance condition when the bulk plasma beta is 1%. This indicates that the resonance does not play an important role in the interaction between thermal ions and the TAE for the relatively low bulk plasma temperature. On the other hand, when the bulk plasma beta is 4%, the resonance between thermal ions and the TAEs become important leading to Landau damping.}, title = {Magnetohydrodynamic hybrid simulation model with kinetic thermal ions and energetic particles}, volume = {63}, year = {2021} }
