The role of poloidal convective cells—i.e. low frequency axisymmetric modes the electric potential—on transport processes is studied with full-F gyrokinetic code GYSELA. In order to understand impact cells, we apply a numerical filter cells and …
Poloidal asymmetries of impurities are commonly observed experimentally. Density asymmetry is already known to impact significantly the neoclassical prediction impurity fluxes. In this article, effect pressure and anisotropy on flux derived …
A penalization technique is applied in global and flux driven gyrokinetic simulations to model a limiter configuration. The immersed boundary implemented terms of restoring force cold distribution function. It acts as perfect heat absorber. Parallel …
This paper describes a parallel implementation of a numerical solver for the Vlasov equation. The solver is based on a kinetic model describing the motion of charged particles in a plasma. The evolution of the distribution of particles in phase space …
