抄録

A two-dimensional transport modeling applicable to a whole tokamak plasma is proposed. The model is derived from the multi-fluid equations and Maxwell's equations and the moment approach of neoclassical transport is employed as fluid closures. The multi-fluid equations consist of the equations for particle density, momentum, energy and total heat flux transport for each plasma species. The expressions of the parallel viscosity and heat viscosity are extended in order to be applicable to both inside and outside of the last closed flux surface. It is confirmed that our neoclassical transport model is consistent with the ordinary flux-surface-averaged one-dimensional neoclassical transport model. Our transport equations are coupled with the electromagnetic equations in order to describe the time evolution of tokamak plasmas. The procedure for coupling a transport solver based on our transport model with an equilibrium solver is also briefly described.
