Predictions on heat transport and plasma rotation from global gyrokinetic simulations

Laurent Villard, Trach-Minh Tran, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Sébastien Jolliet, Paolo Angelino

Flux-driven global gyrokinetic codes are now mature enough to make predictions in terms of turbulence and transport in tokamak plasmas. Some of the recent breakthroughs of three such codes, namely GYSELA, ORB5 and XGC1, are reported and compared wherever a ...
