Global SOLPS-ITER and ERO2.0 coupling in a linear device for the study of plasma–wall interaction in helium plasma

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
Plasma–wall interaction (PWI) is a great challenge in the development of a nuclear fusion power plant. To investigate phenomena like erosion of plasma-facing components, impurity transport and redeposition, one needs reliable numerical tools for the ...

Experimental and simulation study of helium plasma transport during ion cyclotron resonance heating in MPS-LD

Nuclear Fusion
The linear plasma devices (LPDs) can provide a good platform to experimentally simulate the divertor physics. MPS-LD is a new LPD, which uses ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) to raise the ion temperature ( T _i ).

Autoregressive long-horizon prediction of plasma edge dynamics

Nuclear Fusion
Accurate modeling of scrape-off layer (SOL) and divertor-edge dynamics is vital for designing plasma-facing components in fusion devices. High-fidelity edge fluid/neutral codes such as SOLPS-ITER capture SOL physics with high accuracy, but their ...

A reduced model for the ITER divertor based on SOLPS solutions for ITER Q = 10 baseline conditions: A. identifying options for the control parameters

Nuclear Fusion, 2022
Edge codes such as SOLPS coupled to neutral codes such as EIRENE have become so comprehensive and sophisticated that they now constitute, in effect, ‘code-experiments’ that, as for actual experiments, can benefit from interpretation using simple models ...

Impact of a new general form of friction and thermal forces on SOLPS-ITER modeling results

, 2017
The SOLPS-ITER transport code was released in 2015 on the basis of older versions of SOLPS and the EIRENE Monte Carlo code for neutrals. In the parallel momentum balance equations of this first release, each of the ion species was combined with the ...

On the role of atomic momentum and molecules in self-consistent 1D scrape-off layer simulation of MAST-U, using DIV1D

Nuclear Fusion
In this paper, the 1D physics-based dynamic scrape-off-layer (SOL) model DIV1D is extended to include molecular interactions and the effects of finite atomic flow velocity parallel to the magnetic field lines.
