Abstract
The transport of either intrinsic or injected impurities will play a crucial role in the energy loss mechanisms in the ITER gaseous/cold plasma target divertor. Both 1βD and 2βD multiβcharge state fluid codes are used to model the transport of beryllium in the ITER SOL. Our major conclusion is that in order to model the containment of impurities, the background flow field must be known in detail. Comparing 1βD and 2βD solutions, hydrogen flow reversal plays an important role in the entrainment process. Further, the flow of particles from the core plasma also has a strong impact on the resultant entrainment of the impurities in both 1βD and 2βD. It is imperative that those components of poloidal velocity due to ExB and diamagnetic drifts be included in the models.

## Abstract Neon impurity behavior in the ITER gaseous target divertor was investigated numerically by a 2βdimensional multifulid code (B2.5 code). The balance between neon gas puffing and particle pumping in the divertor region had a strong effect on electron energy cooling processes. With increas
We have simulated detachment in ITER, with the UEDGE code coupled to a Navier-Stokes neutral model, for realistic toroidaI geometry and plasma parameten, with a heat flux of 100 MW into the outboard SOL. For a fixed fraction of carbon, corresponding to Zeff4.5 in the SOL, the power to the outer plat
