TRANSP Tests Of TGLF and Predictions For ITER
Authors: Robert V. Budny, et.al.
Abstract: Gyro kinetic simulations of turbulence capture some of the features observed in
transport, fluctuations, and correlations measured in tokamak plasmas. These codes calculations are
CPU intensive, and are not practical for incorporation in present time-dependant transport codes, so
reduced models based on these gyro kinetic codes are being used. An example is the TGLF model [1]
which is a quasilinear gyrofluid model calibrated to nonlinear results from the GYRO code [2]. Recently
TGLF has been incorporated into TRANSP [3].
