Constraining the divertor heat width in ITER

A model is developed which constrains heat width, λr based on global power balance, momentum conservation, pedestal stability and sheath heat transmission. The model relies on measurements of the ratio of separatrix to pedestal pressure; a ratio ∼5% is found to be expected for ITER. Applying this mo...
