Applications of TEMCO to the Spheromak and the Reversed Field Pinch

摘要

This paper deals with two subjects. One concerns the use of consistent boundary conditions when performing MHD simulations of the reversed field pinch. Of particular concern is the choice of constant current, which when combined with other commonly used boundary conditions, could lead to an inconsistency. The second subject area is that of MHD simulation of the CTX spheromak. A summary of results since the 1984 3-D MHD Workshop is presented. (ERA citation 11:025100)
