Abstract
The code COREDIV, self-consistent with respect to both the interaction of plasma core-edge and main plasma impurities, is used to simulate nitrogen-seeded discharges in JET. The model is fully described and numerical results are compared with experimental data pertaining to two series of discharges differing in input power, confinement, the level of power radiated and the puffing rate of the main gas. Impurity sources, their transport and densities are considered as functions of the edge and core parameters and consistency of their radiated power is discussed. Special emphasis is given to analysis of the fluxes of carbon and recycled deuterium.
