DIVIMP Modeling of Impurity Transport in EAST

Simulations of carbon impurity transport in SOL/divertor plasmas with Ohmic heat- ing on EAST tokamak were performed using the two-dimensional (2D) Monte Carlo impurity transport code DIVIMP. The background plasmas for DIVIMP simulations were externally taken from B2.5/Eirene calculation. Besides the basic output of DIVIMP, the 2D density distributions of the carbon impurity with different ionization states and neutral carbon atoms were obtained, the 2D distributions of CII and CIII emissivities from C ⁺¹ and C ⁺² radiation respectively were also calculated. Comparison between the measured and calculated CIII emissivities showed favorable agreement, indicating that the impurity physics transport models, as implemented in the DIVIMP code, are suitable for the EAST tokamak plasma condition.
