The impact of plasma turbulence on atomic reaction rates in the detached ASDEX Upgrade divertor

Konrad Eder, Wladimir Zholobenko, Andreas Stegmeir +2

Numerical modeling of the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) must account for atomic processes such as hydrogenic ionization and recombination, charge-exchange, and line radiation. Th…

On the mechanism of Pedestal Relaxation Events -- Insights gained by turbulence simulations with GRILLIX

Christoph Pitzal, Andreas Stegmeir, Tim Happel +7

Pedestal Relaxation Events (PREs) appear in I-mode discharges close to the I-H transition. Although they show certain similarities with Edge Localised Modes (ELMs), i.e. periodic e…

Turbulence and Transport in Spectrally Accelerated full-f Gyrokinetic Simulations

B. J. Frei, P. Ulbl, C. Pitzal +2

We investigate edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) turbulence and transport using the spectrally accelerated full-f gyrokinetic (GK) code GENE-X, recently introduced in [B. J. Frei et…

Simulating X-point radiator turbulence

K. Eder, W. Zholobenko, A. Stegmeir +5

Coupling a high-performance burning plasma core to a detached boundary solution is critical for realizing magnetic confinement fusion power. Predictive simulations of the edge and…

On the proper treatment of magnetic fluctuations in full- field-aligned turbulence codes

Kaiyu Zhang, Wladimir Zholobenko, Andreas Stegmeir +2

Plasma turbulence in the edge of magnetic confinement devices is customarily treated as full- due to large fluctuations. For computational efficiency, field-aligned coordinates…

Treatment of Advanced Divertor Configurations in the Flux-Coordinate Independent turbulence code GRILLIX

Thomas Body, Andreas Stegmeir, Wladimir Zholobenko +2

Advanced divertor configurations modify the magnetic geometry of the diverter to achieve a combination of strong magnetic flux expansion, increased connection length and higher div…
