Digital twin of the first wall of a tokamak fusion reactor

Our researcher dr. Matic Brank presents his work on a digital twin of the first wall of a tokamak fusion reactor in a video.

One of the challenges is to address the physical phenomena (e.g. heat flux deposition, photonic movement, and heat transfer) with sufficient complexity to arrive at a digital solution that is comparable to an actual experiment.
