Numerical methods for stellarator simulations in BOUT++
David Bold, Brendan Shanahan
Modeling the Scape-off layer (SOL) of stellarator fusion devices is challenging due to the complicated magnetic topology, requiring numerical tools to solve transport equations for…

Gas puff imaging of plasma turbulence in the magnetic island scrape-off layer of W7-X
S. G. Baek, S. Ballinger, O. Grulke +5
The turbulence characteristics of the scrape-off-layer (SOL) plasma in the W7-X stellarator are investigated using a gas-puff-imaging (GPI) diagnostic, newly installed and operated…

Global fluid turbulence simulations in the SOL of a stellarator island divertor
Brendan Shanahan, David Bold, Ben Dudson
Isothermal fluid turbulence simulations have been performed in the edge and scrape-off-layer (SOL) of an analytic stellarator configuration with an island divertor, thereby providi…
