Abstract
A vacuum magnetic field structure in the edge region of Wendelstein 7- X lending itself to the island divertor concept is studied for three r otational transform values, iota = 5/6, 5/5 and 5/4. An estimate of th e power load on the divertor plates is given for these magnetic field configurations by using a simplified transport model in conjunction wi th complementary Monte Carlo methods allowing simulation of transport across field lines.
