Thermohydraulic simulation on CIC conductor with adaptive mesh finite volume method for KSTAR Tokamak superconducting magnet

To study the quench in the CICC, the numerical analysis c ade was developed . The fully implicit time integration of upwind scheme for finite volume me thod is utilized to discretize the equations on the staggered mesh. The sch eme of adaptive mesh is proposed for the moving boundary problem and the ti me term is discretized by the theta -implicit scheme. The discretized equat ions are solved by the IMSL. The error analysis of this method is performed by various stop-sizes of time and space. The thermal hydraulic behavior of the CICC used in KSTAR is studied.
