Plasma edge and plasma-wall interaction modelling: Lessons learned from metallic devices

Robust power exhaust schemes employing impurity seeding are needed for target operational scenarios in present day tokamak devices with metallic plasma-facing components (PFCs). For an electricity-producing fusion power plant at power density Psep/R>15MW/m divertor detachment is a requirement for...
