In the flux amplification compact torus experiment, the bias flux penetrates the wall of the flux conserver because it has been switched on a suitably long time prior to the production of a seed spheromak. The magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium configurations with a non-constant λ(≡µ 0 j · B / | B | 2 ) profile of a helicity-driven spheromak incorporating the situation of the bias-flux leakage out of the flux conserver are numerically determined by using the novel combination of the finite difference and the boundary element method. Here µ 0 , j and B are the permeability of vacuum, the current density and the magnetic field, respectively. The results of computations show that the effects of the bias-flux leakage cause a slight rise of the entire safety factor q in the case of I C / I P =0.4 ( I C and I P denote the total current of coil and plasma, respectively) because of the decrease in poloidal field over all space. Then, they also give rise to a 22.0% decrease in the magnetic flux inside the separatrix.
