Direct coupling between a transport solver and local, nonlinear gyrokinetic calculations using the multiscale gyrokinetic code TRINITY [M. Barnes, “TRINITY: A unified treatment of turbulence, transport, and heating in magnetized plasmas,” Ph.D. thesis, University of Maryland, (2008) eprint arXiv:0901.2868] is described. The coupling of the micr…

A set of key properties for an ideal dissipation scheme in gyrokinetic simulations is proposed, and implementation of a model collision operator satisfying these properties is described. This operator is based on the exact linearized test-particle collision operator, with approximations to the field-particle terms that preserve conservation laws an…

We motivate the need to include collisional dissipation in gyrokinetic turbulence simulations, and constract criteria for a physically vaUd model of such dissipation. A new analytically manageable operator satisfying those criteria is presented and transformed into gyrokinetic variables. The form of conservation laws for collision operators in gyro…
