ITER is an experimental device of the tokamak type whose purpose is to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of fusion energy for peaceful purposes. Its construction has been decided and the start of construction in Cadarache, France, by an international partnership consisting of Europe, Japan, Russia, the United States, China, and South Korea is imminent. Canadian groups are expected to participate in specific projects on ITER. Among the most important physics questions for ITER, power and particle control ranks as one of the crucial areas because the divertor, the interface between the plasma and the material plasma-facing components, must simultaneously exhaust the power, the deuterium, and the helium ash at realistic plasma and technological parameters. The key to the definition and optimisation of this vital component and its operating parameters is provided by edge and divertor plasma modelling. Using the state-of-the-art plasma simulation code B2-EIRENE, it is proposed to characterise the plasma parameters of the divertor of a next-step fusion device, ITER, to investigate improved divertor operating scenarios based on the radiation of various injected impurities, to optimise the operating conditions consistent with the other plasma and technological constraints on the device and to investigate the impact of modifications of the divertor geometry. The work will be carried out in a framework of international cooperation.

热核实验堆是一个托卡马克型实验装置，其目的是证明聚变能用于和平目的的科学和技术可行性。它的建设已经决定，由欧洲、日本、俄罗斯、美国、中国和韩国组成的国际伙伴关系在法国卡达拉什开始建设迫在眉睫。预计加拿大团体将参加热核实验堆的具体项目。在ITER最重要的物理问题中，功率和粒子控制是至关重要的领域之一，因为偏滤器（等离子体和面向等离子体的材料组件之间的界面）必须同时耗尽功率、氘和氦。在现实的等离子体和技术参数下的氦灰。边缘和偏滤器等离子体建模提供了定义和优化这一重要组件及其操作参数的关键。利用先进的等离子体模拟程序B2-EIRENE，对下一步聚变装置ITER偏滤器的等离子体参数进行了数值模拟，研究了基于各种注入杂质辐射的偏滤器改进运行方案，优化运行条件，使之与装置上的其他等离子体和技术限制条件相一致，并研究偏滤器改进的影响几何这项工作将在国际合作的框架内进行。
