In future demonstration fusion power plants, plasma facing components will face high steady state and ultra-high transient heat loads from the plasma. Introducing low thermal conductivity features to the component can reduce the peak temperatures seen by the coolant pipe, but at the trade-off of a loss of steady-state performance. Producing low-con…
Sequential numerical methods for integrating initial value problems (IVPs) can be prohibitively expensive when high numerical accuracy is required over the entire interval of integration. One remedy is to integrate in a parallel fashion, “predicting” the solution serially using a cheap (coarse) solver and “correcting” these values using an …
