Description
The 2-D 2-fluid finite element code FELS has been coupled to the Monte-Carlo code for neutrals EIRENE and to the flux-surface fitted structured mesh generator Sonnet. A good agreement with the finite volume B2 code is demonstrated in an actual divertor geometry, provided the FELS mesh is sufficiently aligned and poloidally refined. (orig.)
