Abstract
Recently the drift-reduced Landau fluid six-field turbulence model within the BOUT++ framework [1] has been upgraded. In particular, this new model employs a new normalization, adds a volumetric flux-driven source option, the Landau fluid closure for parallel heat flux and a Laplacian inversion solver which is able to capture n=0 axisymmetric mode evolution in realistic tokamak configurations. These improvements substantially extended model's capability to study a wider range of tokamak edge phenomena, and are essential to build a fully self-consistent edge turbulence model capable of both transient (e.g., ELM, disruption) and transport time-scale simulations.
