The high-performance computer system Helios which is located at The Computational Simulation Centre (CSC) in The International Fusion Energy Research Centre (IFERC) started its operation in January 2012 under the Broader Approach (BA) agreement between Japan and the EU. The Helios system has been used for magnetised fusion related simulation studies in the EU and Japan and has kept high average usage rate. As a result, the Helios system has contributed to many research products in a wide range of research areas from core plasma physics to reactor material and reactor engineering. This project review gives a short catalogue of domestic simulation research projects. First, we outline the IFERC-CSC project. After that, shown are objectives of the research projects, numerical schemes used in simulation codes, obtained results and necessary computations in future.

Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations are the very powerful method to understand physics of edge plasmas in fusion devices. Poisson solver with a regular grid in a rectangular vessel is very fast, but it cannot simply be applicable to simulations in complicated divertor configuration. In this paper, a simple and fast Poisson solver with arbitrary boundary shape and condition for PIC simulation is proposed. Boundary points are essential for this Poisson solver, on which the charge density is appropriately given and the boundary condition is satisfied. For particle simulations in the open system, it is necessary to distinguish whether a traced particle moves freely or hits the wall boundary during a time step. A new method for PIC simulation to discriminate a particle position before the boundary or beyond the boundary is also presented.

A meniscus of plasma-beam boundary in H$$^{-}$$ ion sources largely affects the extracted H$$^{-}$$ ion beam optics. Recently it is shown that the beam halo is mainly caused by the meniscus, i.e. ion emissive surface, close to the plasma grid (PG) where its curvature is large. The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of H$$^{-}$$ surface production rate on plasma meniscus and beam halo formation with PIC (particle-in-cell) modeling. It is shown that the plasma meniscus and beam halo formation is strongly dependent on the amount of surface produced H$$^{-}$$ ions.

Neoclassical transport modeling compatible with a two-fluid transport equation system

Honda, Mitsuru; Fukuyama, Atsushi*; Nakajima, Noriyoshi*

Plasma and Fusion Research (Internet), 6, p.1403008_1 - 1403008_11, 2011/05

A neoclassical transport model compatible with a system of two-fluid equations is proposed. The model is based on the moment approach and is capable of accurately reproducing important neoclassical properties through a simple expression of the neoclassical viscosity tensor, with the aid of the NCLASS module. Applying neoclassical transport theory in a fluid context, we obtain good agreement on first-order flows, poloidal flows, neoclassical resistivity, bootstrap current and particle flux from TASK/TX and NCLASS.

Self-consistent integrated modelling of core and SOL/divertor transports and simulation study on transient behavior of heat load on divertor targets

Shimizu, Katsuhiro; Takizuka, Tomonori; Hoshino, Kazuo; Honda, Mitsuru; Hayashi, Nobuhiko; Takayama, Arimichi*; Fukuyama, Atsushi*; Yagi, Masatoshi*

Proceedings of 23rd IAEA Fusion Energy Conference (FEC 2010) (CD-ROM), 6 Pages, 2011/03

We have developed a self-consistent integrated modelling of core and SOL/divertor transport. Thereby it enables us to investigate operation scenarios to be compatible with high confinement core plasma and detached divertor plasmas. To integrate a 1.5D core code (TOPICS-IB and TASK) and a 2D divertor code (SONIC), we introduce a new Multiple Program Multiple Data parallel computing system. For an integrated code including Monte-Carlo calculations, this system makes it possible to perform efficient simulations. The predictive simulation studies are carried out for JT-60SA with the integrated code (TOPICS-IB/SONIC) and the characteristics of the divertor heat load after the H-mode transition is clarified. We also discuss about the temporal behavior of divertor characteristics after an ELM crash.
