In this study, the effect of the divertor leg length on the power handling in the SlimCS DEMO reactor is investigated for future divertor design. The SONIC simulation shows enhancement of recycling in the outer divertor region due to effects of the long divertor leg and deep V-shaped corner. As a result, the ion and electron temperature at the outer divertor significantly decreases. In addition, peak of the Ar impurity radiation, which is located close to the outer divertor target in the standard divertor geometry, moves upstream. The former decreases the heat load to the outer divertor due to the ion conduction and convection, and the latter reduces the heat load due to the impurity radiation. The peak of the total heat load on the outer divertor decreases by about 30%.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:17.72(Physics, Fluids & Plasmas)The spectral profile of C IV (=6-7) measured from the strong radiation zone (X-point MARFE) in a detached plasma of JT-60U with a high resolution spectrometer was analyzed by PPP code. In the previous analysis, a spectral profile calculated by the PPP code with an input of single pair of electron density and temperature was compared to the measured spectral profile. It was found that the spectral profiles measured around the X-point MARFE were reproduced with the calculated spectral profile but the ones measured at the center of the X-point MARFE were not. In the present analysis, two spectral profiles were calculated with two pairs of electron density and temperature and were summed up, leading to successful reproduction of the measured spectral profile. The two pairs of electron density and temperature used for the calculation were 110 m and 23.0 eV, and 610 m and 2.5 eV, respectively, with a mixture ratio of 65:35.
