First 3D modelling of tungsten erosion and migration in WEST discharges adopting a toroidally non-symmetric wall geometry

First 3D modelling of tungsten erosion and migration in WEST discharges adopting a toroidally non-symmetric wall geometry

Numerical analysis is a useful tool to investigate tungsten (W) sources and transport across plasma in W Environment Steady state Tokamak (WEST) plasma discharges, as it highlights physical mechanisms not always directly observable in experiments. Modelling activities were performed to study W erosi...
