Particle pinch in global tokamak edge simulations
Ben Zhu
The inward particle flux, or particle pinch, is routinely observed in magnetically confined fusion experiments, yet its mechanism is not fully understood. We study the particle pin…

Electromagnetic turbulence simulation of tokamak edge plasma dynamics and divertor heat load during thermal quench
Ben Zhu, Xue-qiao Xu, Xian-Zhu Tang
The edge plasma turbulence and transport dynamics, as well as the divertor power loads during the thermal quench phase of tokamak disruptions are numerically investigated with BOUT…
