Predicting three-dimensional thermal loads during tokamak disruptions is essential for ITER yet remains weakly developed. We present a physics-based workflow that couples MHD simulations of vertical displacement events with field line tracing on a realistic 3D first wall model and a transient wall thermal response. The approach is validated agai…
MAST pedestal data has been analysed, where a pedestal database of 892 shots was obtained, using the new upgraded MAST Thomson Scattering (TS) diagnostic. Various ELM types are discussed, where characteristics and trends of MAST pedestals are shown. The data from the upgraded TS diagnostic confirms pedestal characteristics found in earlier analy…
