Reference Lithium Deposition on NSTX Plasma Facing Components by LITER–1 Evaporator

Abstract:
The calculation by Cbebm code of lithium deposition from the LITER–1 lithium evaporator on the surface of the graphite tiles of NSTX during 2006 campaign is presented. The numerical model represents a collisionless gas model which assumes re-evaporation of the Li molecules after their collision with the wall. The data can serve as a reference Li deposition distribution, which would be established in a perfectly clean vacuum vessel.
