Description

The dust particles are unavoidably present in all fusion devises. Dust particles can provide important source of impurities in tokamak plasma. D-T fuel accumulation in dusty particles in future thermonuclear devises can present a potentially serious safety problem. We investigated dust particle transport dynamics in tokamaks using newly developed 3D code DUSTT and present the results obtained for ITER tokamak
