Recent progress on improving ICRF coupling and reducing RF-specific impurities in ASDEX Upgrade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The recent scientific research on ASDEX Upgrade (AUG) has greatly advanced solutions to two issues of Radio Frequency (RF) heating in the Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequencies (ICRF): (a) the coupling of ICRF power to the plasma is significantly improved by

Impact of impurities on the effective charge state distribution in the limiter plasmas of Wendelstein 7-X

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Carbon and oxygen have been identified as the two major impurities in the first limiter operational phase of the stellarator Wendelstein 7-X. We evaluate basic differences between these impurities regarding the effective charge state in the boundary ...

Estimations of edge plasma and impurity performance on HL-2M with EMC3-EIRENE modelling

open access: yesPhysica Scripta, 2021
Abstract The three-dimensional edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE has been employed to investigate the edge plasma behavior and carbon impurity transport in the HuanLiuqi-2M (HL-2M) tokamak. It is found that the outboard divertor target has a narrower flux deposition width and therefore undergoes more intense peak ...

Impurity transport simulation in the peripheral plasma in the large helical device with tungsten closed helical divertor

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2018
Long pulse plasma discharges in the Large Helical Device have been often interrupted by iron dust emission induced by electric arcing on the surface of the vacuum vessel.

Effect of magnetic perturbation fields on power decay length in EMC3-EIRENE simulations and comparison to experiment in ASDEX upgrade

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
Previous simulation results for the tokamak ASDEX Upgrade have shown that Magnetic Perturbation (MP) fields could lead to a decrease of the peak heat flux onto the divertor targets. However, experimentally, such a decrease has not been observed.

2D and 3D studies of the X-divertor configuration in the future upper divertor of ASDEX upgrade

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2019
ASDEX Upgrade is planning the installation of a pair of in-vessel coils in order to study alternative divertor configurations, like an X-divertor (XD) or a Snowflake (SF) in a machine with a high heating power compared to its size.

EMC3-EIRENE simulation of first wall recycling fluxes in W7-X with relation to H-alpha measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, the main locations of particle sources are expected to be the carbon divertors, baffles and graphite heat shield first wall. In this paper, the heat shield is implemented in EMC3-EIRENE to understand the expected areas

Impacts of neon injection position and direction on toroidally asymmetric heat load distribution for EAST tokamak

open access: yesNuclear Materials and Energy, 2023
The impacts of neon injection positions and directions on the toroidally asymmetric heat load distributions on the divertor targets have been investigated for EAST tokamak by means of three-dimensional (3D) edge transport code EMC3-EIRENE. The heat loads

First EMC3‐EIRENE Simulations with Divertor Legs of LHD in Realistic Device Geometry

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, 2014
AbstractAn extended mesh system for EMC3‐EIRENE has been developed to simulate peripheral plasma including the ergodic and the divertor leg regions of LHD. Both the open and the closed divertor configurations are available. A series of simulations for 8MW input power, five different electron densities at the LCFS (last closed flux surface) and the open/
