摘要
In magnetically confined tokamak plasmas the width of plasma Scrape-off Layer (SOL) allows direct estimation of anomalous diffusivity in limited and diverted versions of plasma configurations. The diffusivity coupled to edge and SOL plasma fluctuations is to be a decisive factor in stability of fusion grade plasmas and can be characterized for its dependence on 3D effects in moderate size tokamaks like Aditya. For Aditya tokamak configuration, 3D effects in SOL plasma transport are studied using 3D Monte-Carlo transport code combination EMC3-EIRENE to complement the limited probe measurements during experimental operation of the device. As an important 3D effects, variation from 1D estimates of up and downstream density scale lengths are recovered to generate appropriate corrections for estimates of plasma diffusivity and other transport propertied measured in Aditya tokamak plasma.
