A “marginal criteria” to distinguish detached and attached divertor plasma conditions needed for safety analysis of postulated plasma transients has been developed. Divertor operational space and lookup tables are generated for use in physics-safety assessments of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). The transient analyses considering the marginal criteria for divertor attached-detached transition is expected to yield conservative safety assessments.
