Integrated modeling of RF-Induced Tungsten Erosion at ICRH Antenna Structures in the WEST Tokamak
A. Kumar, W. Tierens, T. Younkin +14
This paper introduces STRIPE (Simulated Transport of RF Impurity Production and Emission), an advanced modeling framework designed to analyze material erosion and the global transp…
Fluid and kinetic modelling for non-local heat transport in magnetic fusion devices
Guido Ciraolo, Hugo Bufferand, Pierfrancesco Di Cintio +7
In order to improve the presently used ad hoc flux limiter treatment of parallel heat flux transport in edge plasma fluid codes we consider here a generalized version of the Fourie…
Overview of recent physics results from MAST
A Kirk, J Adamek, RJ Akers +160
New results from MAST are presented that focus on validating models in order to extrapolate to future devices. Measurements during start-up experiments have shown how the bulk ion…
Scrape-off layer ion temperature measurements at the divertor target during type III and type I ELMs in MAST measured by RFEA
S. Elmore, S. Y. Allan, G. Fishpool +4
In future nuclear fusion reactors high heat load events, such as edge-localised modes (ELMs), can potentially damage divertor materials and release impurities into the main plasma,…
