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…
Dynamics of 3D isolated thermal filaments
N. R. Walkden, L. Easy, F. Militello +1
Simulations have been carried out to establish how electron thermal physics, introduced in the form of a dynamic electron temperature, affects isolated filament motion and dynamics…
Verification of BOUT++ by the Method of Manufactured Solutions
Ben Dudson, Jens Madsen, John Omotani +3
BOUT++ is a software package designed for solving plasma fluid models. It has been used to simulate a wide range of plasma phenomena ranging from linear stability analysis to 3D pl…
Investigation of the Effect of Resistivity on Scrape Off Layer Filaments using Three Dimensional Simulations
Luke Easy, Fulvio Militello, John Omotani +2
The propagation of filaments in the Scrape Off Layer (SOL) of tokamaks largely determine the plasma profiles in the region. In a conduction limited SOL, parallel temperature gradie…
Numerical investigation of isolated filament motion in a realistic tokamak geometry
N. R. Walkden, B. D. Dudson, L. Easy +2
This paper presents a numerical investigation of isolated filament dynamics in a simulation geometry representative of the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak…
The effects of shape and amplitude on the velocity of scrape-off layer filaments
J. T. Omotani, F. Militello, L. Easy +1
A complete model of the dynamics of scrape-off layer filaments will be rather complex, including temperature evolution, three dimensional geometry and finite Larmor radius effects.…
BOUT++: Recent and current developments
B. D. Dudson, A. Allen, G. Breyiannis +12
BOUT++ is a 3D nonlinear finite-difference plasma simulation code, capable of solving quite general systems of PDEs, but targeted particularly on studies of the edge region of toka…
