[en] Neutral beam injection is a robust method for heating and current drive because it does not depend on any resonance conditions or coupling conditions at the edge. High-energy neutral beam current drive (NBCD) was experimentally validated for central current drive in JT-60U, giving a further confidence in ITER predictions. Recent progress in diagnostics, equilibrium solvers and analysis techniques enable rather detailed comparisons with NBCD codes. However, different codes give somewhat different results. Thus, we need to clarify physics implementations in NBCD codes, such as the beam model, ionization process, fast ion diffusion in the velocity space, orbit effects and electron shielding. Also from an integrated modelling viewpoint, an NBCD code benchmark is needed to establish a more solid basis for ITER operations. A benchmark of the Fokker-Planck code ACCOME has been performed against the orbit following Monte-Carlo code OFMC. Although calculated profiles agree rather well, the OFMC profile is slightly wider than the ACCOME one. The difference in the total fast ion current is ∼ 15%. We have examined fast ion diffusion in the 2D velocity space and observed difference in the diffusion in the pitch angle space. We have also examined orbit effects using a point source of the fast ions. Comparison of OFMC runs with and without the drift term in the orbit equation shows the finite banana width effect is not negligible. We have started a new NBCD code benchmark in the frame of the ITPA Steady-State Operation Topical Group with Fokker-Planck codes and orbit following Monte-Carlo codes such as OFMC, ACCOME, SPOT, NEMO, ASTRA, TRANSP/NUBEAM, ONETWO/NUBEAM, DRIFT and TOPICS.
