Study of the edge tokamak plasma with the new transport code B2SOLPS5.0

Objective

The new code B2SOLPS5.0 will be developed and applied to the simulation of the edge plasma of the modern tokamaks by the joint efforts of groups from Greifswald, Garching, Innsbruck, St. Petersburg and Moscow. The emphasis will be maid on the investigation of the effects associated with the self-consistent electric fields and currents. The radial electric field at the separatrix vicinity will be investigated both in low (L) and high (H) confinement regimes, and the physics of the L-H transition will be studied. The role of the ExB and diamagnetic drifts in the formation of the plasma fluxes in the scrape-off layer (SOL) and the diverter region will be analysed. Special attention will be paid to the modelling of the particle, energy and impurity redistribution between different diverter legs. Results of the simulation with the fluid code B2SOLPS5.0 will be tested against the same simulation performed by the particle-in cell code. Comparison with experimental data obtained on the modern diverter tokamaks will be performed. Results of the modelling will be used to optimiser the parameters of modern diverters tokamaks and to achieve acceptable performance with steady-state operation.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.
