title: Study on the heat flux reconstruction with the infrared thermography for the divertor target plates in the KSTAR tokamak.
abstract: An infrared (IR) thermography is the preferred diagnostic that can quantify heat flux by measuring the surface temperature distributions of the divertor plates. The IR thermography is successfully instrumented on Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR). In this study, finite volume method is considered to solve the heat conduction equations. 1D-, 2D-, and 3D models are developed and compared with various calculation algorithms, such as Duhamel's theorem and THEODOR. These comparisons show good agreement. In order to acquire more efficient and reliable calculation results, we consider two numerical analysis schemes, influence of temperature on thermal properties and image stabilization. Recently, this reconstruction code is successfully applied to the KSTAR IR thermography.
