NBEAMS
- Abstract
- The NBEAMS module contains routines for the calculation
of neutral beam heating and current drive quantities
in tokamak plasmas. It calculates the NB deposition
profile, profiles of the NB heating power deposited
to the background ions and electrons, various NB current
drive quantities and, optionally, several beam-target
fusion quantities. This module was developed originally
by the author for the ITER systems code "SuperCode"
and it was used extensively during the ITER CDA and
EDA designs. The calculation is approximate (it is
based on the diffuse beam approximation and it assumes
a simplified flux surface geometry) but computationally
fast. The module is intended to be used in simulations
where a realistic NB heating profile is desired, but
the full accuracy of more detailed (and computationally
expensive) codes such as NFREYA is not necessary.
