Abstract We present a new framework for core-edge integration studies named SICAS (SOLPS-ITER coupled to ASTRA-STRAHL) which enables simulations of the core, edge, and divertor regions describing self-consistently transport ions as well impurities through entire plasma domain. handles exchanging particle power fluxes coefficients ensure consistency codes. An overlapping region is defined from inside separatrix SOLPS-ITER core boundary allowing matching profiles between two codes...
Abstract The first achievement of highly radiating plasmas in negative triangularity is shown with an operational space featuring high core radiation at Greenwald fraction obtained the injection reactor-relevant seeded gases. These (NT) shape diverted discharges reach values normalized plasma pressure (BN > 2) no ELMs and a simultaneous reduction divertor heat flux. We demonstrate that as long impurity level kept low to avoid excessive fuel dilution accumulation, integration NT...
