Flux-driven integrated modelling of main ion pressure and trace tungsten transport in ASDEX Upgrade

O. Linder, J. Citrin, G. M. D. Hogeweij +9

Neoclassical and turbulent heavy impurity transport in tokamak core plasmas are determined by main ion temperature, density and toroidal rotation profiles. Thus, in order to unders…
