Abstract
AbstractTwo fluid neutral models are compared with a finite volume solution of the kinetic neutral equation for a simplified 1D detached case. The neutral equations are coupled to the plasma equations. The first fluid neutral model assumes that neutral and ion temperature are equal while the second adds a separate neutral energy equation. It is illustrated that both the AMJUEL‐HYDHEL databases and TRIM code can be incorporated. The first model is already accurate giving a maximum relative error of 10% for the target fluxes. Adding an energy equation further decreases this maximum relative error to 5%.
