Single-fluid simulation of partially-ionized, non-ideal plasma facilitated by a tabulated equation of state
G. Su, S. T. Millmore, X. Zhang +1
We present a single-fluid approach for the simulation of partially-ionized plasmas (PIPs) which is designed to capture the non-ideal effects introduced by neutrals while remaining…

Inferring the scrape-off layer heat flux width in a divertor with a low degree of axisymmetry
C. Marsden, X. Zhang, M. Moscheni +7
Plasma facing components (PFCs) in the next generation of tokamak devices will operate in challenging environments, with heat loads predicted to exceed 10 MWm. The magnitude…

Experimental observations of bifurcated power decay lengths in the near Scrape-Off Layer of tokamak plasmas
X Zhang, C Marsden, M Moscheni +14
The scrape-off layer parallel heat flux decay lengths measured at ST40, a high field, low aspect ratio spherical tokamak, have been observed to bifurcate into two groups. The wide…
