SMITER: A field-line tracing environment for ITER
L. Kos, R. A. Pitts, G. Simic +3
Built around the SMARDDA modules for magnetic field-line tracing [IEEE Tr. Plasma Sc. 42 (2014) 1932], the SMITER code package (SMARDDA for ITER) is a new graphical user interface…
Stability of scrape-off layer plasma: a modified Rayleigh-Benard problem
Fryderyk Wilczynski, David W. Hughes, Sven Van Loo +2
We present a linear stability analysis of a two-dimensional fluid model used to study the plasma dynamics in the scrape-off layer of tokamaks. The model equations are based on the…
Beyond Linear Fields: the Lie-Taylor Expansion
Wayne Arter
The work extends the linear fields' solution of compressible nonlinear magnetohydrodynamics~(MHD) to the case where the magnetic field depends on superlinear powers of position vec…
Ranking the importance of nuclear reactions for activation and transmutation events
Wayne Arter, J. Guy Morgan, Samuel D. Relton +1
Pathways-reduced analysis is one of the techniques used by the Fispact-II nuclear activation and transmutation software to study the sensitivity of the computed inventories to unce…
Power Deposition on Tokamak Plasma-Facing Components
Wayne Arter, Valeria Riccardo, Geoff Fishpool
The SMARDDA software library is used to model plasma interaction with complex engineered surfaces. A simple flux-tube model of power deposition necessitates the following of magnet…
The SMARDDA Approach to Ray-Tracing and Particle Tracking
Wayne Arter, Elizabeth Surrey, Damian. B. King
There is an increasing need to model plasma interaction with complex engineered surfaces, notably to verify that power deposition rates are acceptable. The SMARDDA algorithm has be…
Geometric Results for Compressible Magnetohydrodynamics
Wayne Arter
Recently, compressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) has been elegantly formulated in terms of Lie derivatives. This paper exploits the geometrical properties of the Lie bracket to gi…
An Anti-Perfect Dynamo Result
Wayne Arter
It is shown that if the flow vector is a coordinate basis vector, then perfect dynamo action is not possible, regardless of whether the steady flow is compressible. Criteria determ…
Potential Vorticity Formulation of Compressible Magnetohydrodynamics
Wayne Arter
Compressible ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is formulated in terms of the time evolution of potential vorticity and magnetic flux per unit mass using a compact Lie bracket notati…
