Abstract
Operation and exploitation of present and future Tokamak
reactors require advanced scenario modeling in order to
optimize engineering parameters in the design phase as
well as physics performance during the exploitation
phase. The simulation of Tokamak scenarios involves
simultaneous modeling of different regions of the
reactor, characterized by different physics and
symmetries, in order to predict quantities such as
particle and energy confinement, fusion yield, power
deposited on wall, wall load from fast particles. JINTRAC
is a system of 25 interfaced Tokamak-physics codes for
the integrated simulation of all phases of a Tokamak
scenario. JINTRAC predictions reflect the physics and
assumptions implemented in each module and extensive
comparison with experimental data is needed to allow
validation of the models and improvement of
Tokamak-physics understanding.
