Download or read book 1-D Transport Model for Analysis of Expanding Radius and Full Bore Startup of Tokamak Plasmas written by . This book was released on 1980. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the physics models and numerical algorithms that have been used in the WHIST one-dimensional (1-D) transport code to study expanding radius vs full bore startup scenarios for tokamak plasmas. The phase of the tokamak discharge that is modeled is the time segment following plasma breakdown (and initial current channel formation) up to ignition. The code has been applied to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) The Next Step (TNS) reference design. The various physics models are presented, and references are made to benchmarking calculations when they exist.
