Description

A new thermo-hydraulic simulation tool, REIMS (Riemann Explicit Implicit Magnet Simulator), has recently been developed at ITER to model the behavior of superconducting magnet systems. REIMS can simulate normal operation scenarios as well as magnet cool-down, and work is underway to extend its capabilities to quench studies, with promising results for predicting stability and margin to quench. The code achieves accuracy comparable to, and in some cases better than, existing tools while requiring orders of magnitude less computation time. This combination of speed and accuracy makes REIMS a powerful digital innovation for supporting magnet design, validation, and operational studies in fusion research.
