The European Transport Solver

Abstract

The status of the European Transport Solver, a new 1-D core transport code that is being developed by the members of Integrated Modelling Project 3 (“Transport Code and Discharge Evolution”) of the EFDA Task Force on Integrated Tokamak Modelling (ITM), is described. The approach taken by the ITM is to couple codes so that the only exchange is via well-specified data structures (Consistent Physical Objects), with the aim of having the workflow managed by Kepler, a scientific workflow engine.
