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…
Hermes-3: Multi-component plasma simulations with BOUT++
Ben Dudson, Mike Kryjak, Hasan Muhammed +2
A new open source tool for fluid simulation of multi-component plasmas is presented, based on a flexible software design that is applicable to scientific simulations in a wide rang…
The effects of non-uniform drive on plasma filaments
Brendan Shanahan, Ben Dudson, Peter Hill
Wendelstein 7-X core fueling is primarily achieved through pellet injection. The trajectory of plasmoids from an ablating pellet is an ongoing research question, which is complicat…
Fluid simulations of plasma filaments in stellarator geometries with BSTING
B Shanahan, B Dudson, P Hill
Here we present first results simulating plasma filaments in non-axisymmetric geometries, using a fluid turbulence extension of the \boutxx~framework. This is made possible by the…
Generation of synthetic magnetized plasma turbulence by representation as a stochastic process
Jarrod Leddy, Chris Bowman, Kieran Gibson +1
Plasma turbulence simulations are often computationally expensive with delicate numerical stability. Yet, long simulations are needed to generate uncorrelated turbulence data for s…
Towards nonaxisymmetry; initial results using the Flux Coordinate Independent method in BOUT++
Brendan Shanahan, Peter Hill, Ben Dudson
Fluid simulation of stellarator edge transport is difficult due to the complexities of mesh generation; the stochastic edge and strong nonaxisymmetry inhibit the use of field align…
