3D global impurity transport modeling with WallDYN and EMC3-Eirene

open access: goldNuclear Materials and Energy, 2018
The global impurity migration code WallDYN was coupled to the 3D scrape off layer plasma solver EMC3-Eirene in order to make WallDYN applicable to 3D, non-toroidally symmetric, geometries.

Implementation of the 3D edge plasma code EMC3-EIRENE on NSTX [PDF]

open access: greenNuclear Fusion, 2012
The 3D edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE has been applied for the first time to the NSTX spherical tokamak. A new disconnected double null grid has been developed to allow the simulation of plasma where the radial separation of the inner and outer separatrix is less than characteristic widths (e.g. heat flux width) at the midplane.

Proposal of an alternative upper divertor in ASDEX Upgrade supported by EMC3-EIRENE simulations

open access: goldNuclear Materials and Energy, 2017
We discuss the benefits of installing a pair of in-vessel coils with currents |Ifx| ≲ 50 kAt in the upper divertor of ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) to study a series of ‘alternative’ divertor configurations, like the Snowflake (SF) and the X-divertor (XD), that ...

Impact of multifold magnetic structure on spectroscopy analysis in Heliotron J based on EMC3‐EIRENE simulation [PDF]

open access: hybridContributions To Plasma Physics
Abstract The distribution pattern of the connection length in the divertor region of Heliotron J was calculated by the field line tracing method. A multifold layer structure, characterized by the range of connection length, was revealed to interpret the response of the transport of the lower‐charged impurity ions to the divertor structure.

Study of detachment in future ASDEX Upgrade alternative divertor configurations by means of EMC3-EIRENE [PDF]

open access: goldNuclear Materials and Energy, 2021
ASDEX Upgrade is preparing a hardware modification of its upper divertor in order to study alternative divertor configurations, like the X-divertor (XD) and the snowflake divertor (SF), that are discussed as a possible solution for the power exhaust ...

EMC3-EIRENE modelling of the toroidally asymmetric heat flux distribution with neon impurity injection on EAST

open access: goldNuclear Materials and Energy, 2021
The heat flux deposition on the divertor targets with neon impurity injection has been investigated for EAST tokamak with the help of three-dimensional (3D) edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE.

EMC3-Eirene simulations of the tungsten injection experiments in Tore Supra [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Nuclear Materials, 2013
Abstract We report on the first full 3D EMC3-Eirene simulations of the bulk plasma, neutral gas and W impurity transport in Tore Supra (TS). Three configurations are addressed: (A) the high field side-, (B) bottom- and (C) low field side limited case and compared to Mach probe measurements at the top of the device.

Stabilization of EMC3-EIRENE for detachment conditions and comparison to SOLPS-ITER

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Numerical access to cold divertor conditions in tokamaks with EMC3-EIRENE has been proven to be challenging, but is now possible for the first time after a linearization of the electron energy sink term from interaction with neutral gas.

Improved Coulomb collision operator for kinetic ion transport with EMC3-EIRENE simulating Nitrogen seeding in medium density ITER L-mode scenario

open access: greenNuclear Materials and Energy
Previous simulations with the kinetic ion transport module of EMC3-EIRENE for Nitrogen seeding in a medium density ITER L-mode scenario showed that the currently simplified Coulomb collision model of EIRENE leads to a strongly overestimated confinement ...
