Implementation and testing of stellarator-capable models in JOREK — •Nikita Nikulsin1, Matthias Hoelzl1, Alessandro Zocco2, Rohan Ramasamy1, Karl Lackner1, and Sibylle Günter11Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Garching, Germany — 2Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, Greifswald, Germany

The JOREK nonlinear MHD code, which currently only supports tokamak simulations, is being extended to stellarators. This is a two-part process. First, a stellarator-capable model, i.e. a model that does not make any assumptions on the underlying geometry, needs to be implemented. The second step involves modifying the currently implemented axisymmetric flux-aligned grids to allow alignment to non-axisymmetric flux surfaces.

We have derived a hierarchy of stellarator-capable models which have better conservation properties than presently used models, but also a different and more complicated mathematical structure [1]. Here, we present our work on the implementation of these new models, first testing results and the peculiarities associated with the new models. A comprehensive benchmark of the new models against presently used models will be carried out in the tokamak limit before we proceed to stellarator simulations.
