摘要
In this paper we introduce some model extensions to the energy balances of the 3D fluid Monte-Carlo code EMC3 and study their influence on the simulation results for TEXTOR-DED. We implemented local kinetic corrections to the classical parallel heat conductivity of electrons (heat flux limit). Depending on the DED configuration, a cooling effect in the outermost SOL region, resulting from the heat flux limit, can be observed. In addition, also the adiabatic cooling term 1/2mnV(2)(V) over right arrow, which was neglected before, was implemented into the energy iterations. This term causes a localized cooling of the ions in front of the wall, where the plasma is accelerated towards the first wall. (c) 2008 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
