Modelling study of divertor W leakage for different divertor conditions with Ne seeding in EAST tokamak

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Sequential SOLPS-ITER and DIVIMP simulations are carried out for tungsten (W) edge transport during neon (Ne) injection in EAST, elucidating the pathway of W impurity leakage from the divertor to the core plasma under different dissipative divertor ...

Simulation study of the influence of the outer target geometry on tungsten contamination: Horizontal vs. vertical target

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy
The core tungsten (W) concentration must be limited to an extremely low level for future fusion reactors. It was found that the effects of E × B drift can lead to a dramatic increase in the core W concentration in our recent work [J.

Radiative divertor studies in JET high confinement mode plasmas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Controlled power exhaust is one of the key challenges in reactor scale fusion devices. These devices must maintain heat loads less than 10 MW/m2 at the plasma-facing materials (PFM), while producing gigawatts of fusion power.

Drifts effect on the divertor W leakage mechanisms under different dissipative divertor conditions of EAST

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
A new drift module has been developed in the DIVIMP code, enabling two-dimensional simulations of tungsten (W) transport in the edge plasma with full drifts included.

Interpretive modeling of tungsten divertor leakage during experiments with neon gas seeding

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Many existing and future tokamaks with tungsten divertors operate, or will operate, with low- Z impurity seeding, but the direct effect of these seeded impurities on tungsten Scrape-off-Layer (SOL) transport has not been explored in detail.

ERO modelling of net and gross erosion of marker samples exposed to L-mode plasmas on ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, we report experimental and numerical investigations of gross and net erosion of gold (Au) and molybdenum (Mo), proxies for the common plasma-facing material tungsten (W), during L-mode plasma discharges in deuterium (D) in the outer strike-

The Application of Mass Spectrometry Techniques for the Benefit of Tungsten Impurity Transport Research and Nuclear Fusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Several barriers prevent the capability of on the grid nuclear fusion power plants. With the research presented here, these issues are confronted and the work makes progress towards addressing known gaps in the fusion community’s understanding of ...
