Simulation software
- NSFsimOur team actively develops NSFsim, an IMAS-compatible, advanced Grad–Shafranov 1.5D axisymmetric (2D solver with a 1D kinetic component), time-dependent, transport-modeling, free-boundary in external magnetic field tokamak plasma simulation code.
- Other codes couplingTRAVIS (ECRH and ECCD ray-tracing), ASCOT5 (NBI and fast-particles), TGLF (turbulent transport), MISHKA (NN surrogate model for pedestal region), and other codes for consistent, end-to-end physics calculations.
- Tokamak digital replicaTo take into account the details and provide reliable, self-consistent modeling, the replica is built from the geometrical and electrical characteristics of the magnetic system and passive conducting structures.
- Wide set of capabilitiesNSFsim has an unmatched set of capabilities that allow us to perform direct, inverse, and plasma-free calculations; develop discharge scenarios; simulate major disruptions and VDEs; perform equilibrium reconstruction; and much more.
- Online simulation platformNSFsim simulations of DIII-D, ISTTOK, NSF NTT, SMART, and other tokamaks are available to the fusion community on the Fusion Twin Platform, a web service for running tokamak simulations and managing fusion data in the cloud.
- Public web APIThe Fusion Twin Platform provides a public web API that allows running NSFsim simulations as part of your pipelines. Examples in Python and MATLAB are available in our GitHub repository.
