摘要
Most ITER divertor modelling work to date used the B2-EIRENE (SOLPS4) code package, coupling a 2D fluid description of the charged plasma species (132) to a Monte-Carlo kinetic description of the neutrals (EIRENE). In recent years, the emphasis at ITER has been on completing the neutral model, including neutral-neutral collisions, opacity effects, radiation transport, etc. Elsewhere, new physics, numerics, and algorithmic improvements, Such as E x B and diamagnetic drifts, electric Currents, ion and neutral heat and particle flux limits, wall material mixing and surface temperature evolution, and bundling of heavy ions species, as well as switching to cell-centred velocities and using an internal energy instead of a total energy equation, gave birth to the B2.5 code, combined with EIRENE as SOLPS5. We report on work in progress to merge these advances with the ITER-specific model of the edge and divertor. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
