Аннотация
This paper examines the effect of grid resolution on the solution of a B2-EIRENE simulation of a partially detached ITER divertor plasma. Due to the large amount of required computational time in coupled finite-volume/Monte-Carlo codes, simulations of the plasma edge are typically run on coarse grids. However, new averaging techniques make simulations with finer grids feasible. Starting from the original numerical grid, simulations are performed on two successively finer grids. Results of the numerical error analysis reveal that the discretization errors are large. Peak values are particularly sensitive to grid resolution and can increase more than 40% for the same model input parameters. However, this effect is partially offset by a modification of the operational space of the ITER divertor in this case. By choosing the numerical parameters more adequately, a total numerical error of only 15% has been achieved within a feasible computational time.
