An integrated transport simulation code for helical plasmas, TASK3D, is developed and applied to LHD plasmas. Neoclassical transport in helical plasmas is evaluated by the neutral-network-based neoclassical transport database, DGN/LHD. Five anomalous transport models are included and the estimated temperature profiles with experiments are compared. We also take into account the differential equation for the radial electric field 
into TASK3D. The obtained electron and ion thermal diffusivities with the Alcator, Bohm, and gyro-Bohm models indicate anomalous thermal transport dominates for electrons, while neoclassical thermal transport plays a crucial role for ions. TASK/TX, solving surface-averaged multi-fluid equations, is also applied to the LHD plasma to examine the time evolution of and plasma rotation. The transition between the electron and ion roots, and the radial structure of has been demonstrated self-consistently.

It is widely accepted that the radial electric field strongly affects plasma confinement through the transport process. We have analysed the time evolution of the radial electric field and the radial transport in plasmas in a helical magnetic configuration by extending the TASK/TX code, which is a one-dimensional dynamic transport code originally developed for axisymmetric plasmas. To apply TASK/TX to helical plasmas, we have included two additional effects; helical neoclassical viscosity force and diffusion due to magnetic braiding. Plasma transport simulation is carried out mainly using the LHD parameters. We obtained negative radial electric field (ion root) with ion heating and positive radial electric field (electron root) with electron heating. Effects of magnetic braiding are also studied.
