Plasma turbulence simulations with X-points using the flux-coordinate independent approach

In this work, the Flux-Coordinate Independent (FCI) approach to plasma turbulence simulations is formulated for the case of generic, static magnetic fields, including those possessing stochastic field lines. It is then demonstrated that FCI is applicable to nonlinear turbulent problems with and without X-point geometry. In particular, by means of simulations with the FENICIA code, it is shown that the standard features of ITG modes are recovered with reduced toroidal resolution. Finally, ITG turbulence under the influence of a static island is studied on the transport timescale with ITER-like parameters, showing the wide range of applicability of the method.
