Abstract
Significant scientific effort has been focused on optimizing the scenarios and plasma parameters for tokamak operations. The lack of comprehensive understanding of underlying physical processes leads to simplifications used both in plasma simulation codes and for diagnostics, which is also complicated by the harsh plasma environment. One of the main tools to couple, check and verify these assumptions are the synthetic diagnostics. In this work we demonstrate current results of the development of the set of synthetic diagnostics for the WEST tokamak to couple experimental data with the SolEdge3X-HDG 2D transport code.
