R. Zanino et al., Numerical solution of a 2-D conduction-convection-radiation model problem in divertor geometry using adaptive finite elements, CZEC J PHYS, 48, 1998, pp. 351-356
Some of the essential features of plasma transport in the tokamak edge with
realistic divertor geometry are simulated using adaptive finite elements t
o solve a time-dependent scalar anisotropic conduction-convection-radiation
problem. Solutions are compared with those obtained on fixed finite elemen
t mesh and typically show comparable accuracy at a much lower cost or much
better accuracy at comparable cost.
