Abstract:
A new numerical solver for stiff transport predictions has been developed and implemented in the
PTRANSP predictive transport code. The TGLF and GLF23 predictive codes have been incorporated in
the solver, verified by comparisons with predictions from the XPTOR code, and validated by comparing
predicted and measured profiles. Predictions for ITER baseline plasmas are presented.
