摘要
A version of the B2SOLPS0.5.2D fluid transport code is the new version of B2SOLPS fluid transport code, which is suited technique to simulate the edge plasma of small size divertor tokamak in the H- regime. The results of simulation provide the following: (1) the radial electric field inside the transport barrier is consistent with the neoclassical nature of the radial electric field. (2) The absolute value of the radial electric field shear at inner side of internal transport barrier is small and consistent with the value of shear before the L-H transition, while the value of shear at barrier is significantly large. (3) As a result of strong radial electric field shear and strong barrier formation the diffusion coefficient reduced by factor similar to 3 with respect to L-mode while ion heat conductivity reduced by factor similar to 22 with respect to L-mode inside the barrier. (4) The toroidal (Parallel) flux is directed along co-current direction as L-mode but at inner side of barrier is significantly large in absolute value. (5) The radial profile of toroidal rotation in vicinity of transition layer is determined by the parameter delta (width of the transition layer) depending on the collisionality and anomalous diffusion coefficient.
