Plasma edge codes like SOLPS-ITER [1] are currently the main tools for interpreting exhaust scenarios in existing experiments, and for designing next step fusion reactors like ITER and DEMO. These codes typically couple a multi-fluid model for the plasma with a kinetic model for the neutral particles. While the former is implemented in a (deterministic) Finite Volume setting, the latter is...
The suite of tools being developed to support the preparations for ITER operation, including data interpretation and analysis, and the refinement of the ITER Research Plan, are underpinned by a common data representation that forms the basis around which the Integrated Modelling & Analysis Suite (IMAS) is built and which strives to make fusion data more FAIR.
Adopting a common standard for...
