Web apps for profile fitting and power balance analysis at Wendelstein 7-X

Le résumé fourni par la source

Two novel web apps for W7-X are introduced: Profile Cooker and Power House. They are designed to streamline the workflow of profile fitting and power balance analysis while offering a graphical user interface that works in any common browser. This allows us to compile a comprehensive database of experimental power balance results. All fitting functions available in Profile Cooker are presented and compared on the basis of example profiles. The power balance equation assumed in Power House is established and its individual terms are discussed. The main focus of the power balance analysis is on the turbulent transport coefficients. A model for quick calculation of neutral beam power deposition based on experimental profiles is presented. Neoclassical root transition poses an issue for power balance analysis due to the uncertainty of the radial electric field. A global, neoclassical simulation with the code EUTERPE is performed for a set of experimental profiles to gain an understanding of the neoclassical root transition.
