Abstract

To analyse the impurity transport in plasma-shadowed, remote areas, methane CD 4 has been injected into the far scrape-off layer of TEXTOR through a cylinder equipped with a quartz micro balance (QMB). CD 4 transport including break-up and resulting deposition on the QMB (shot-resolved) and on the cylinder top surface (shot-integrated) has been modelled with the codes ERO and 3D-GAPS. The modelling shows good agreement with the observations if reflection coefficients based on molecular dynamics simulations are used. In contrast to plasma-wetted areas, no enhanced erosion has to be applied.
