SOLPS-ITER simulation of an X-point radiator in TCV

G. Sun, O. Pan, M. Bernert +7

SOLPS-ITER simulation is performed to reproduce the X-point radiator recently observed in nitrogen-seeded TCV experiments, which is a scenario that may be favorable to solve the po…

Comparison of detachment in Ohmic plasmas with positive and negative triangularity

O. Février, C. K. Tsui, G. Durr-Legoupil-Nicoud +18

In recent years, negative triangularity (NT) has emerged as a potential high-confinement L-mode reactor solution. In this work, detachment is investigated using core density ramps…

Parallel flows as a key component to interpret Super-X divertor experiments

M. Carpita, O. Février, H. Reimerdes +15

The Super-X Divertor (SXD) is an alternative divertor configuration leveraging total flux expansion at the Outer Strike Point (OSP). While the extended 2-Point Model (2PM) predicts…

Investigating the impact of the molecular charge-exchange rate on detached SOLPS-ITER simulations

Kevin Verhaegh, Aelwyn C Williams, David Moulton +7

Plasma-molecular interactions generate molecular ions which react with the plasma and contribute to detachment through molecular activated recombination (MAR), reducing the ion tar…
