摘要
Two-fluid (ions and electrons) flowing equilibrium configurations of spherical torus plasma are numerically determined by using the multi-grid method. The axisymmetric equilibrium equations consist of a pair of second-order partial differential equations for the magnetic (electron) and ion stream functions, and Bernoulli equations for the density. It is found from the numerical results that the multi-grid method with the damped Jacobi method in the smoothing step is effective for solving these equations with numerical stability, high accuracy, and high speed.
