“…This requirement has spurred multiple efforts to calculate such data. Chung et al [3] calculated DR rate coefficient data for the isonuclear sequence of tungsten using FLYCHK, which uses the average-atom method (Zhao and Li [4]). Pütterich et al [5] used ADPAK (Post et al [6,7]), which is based on the average-atom method also.…”

Tungsten is an important metal in nuclear fusion reactors. It will be used in the divertor component of ITER (Latin for 'the way'). The Tungsten Project aims to calculate partial and total DR rate coefficients for the isonuclear sequence of Tungsten. The calculated data will be made available as and when they are produced via the open access database OPEN-ADAS in the standard adf09 and adf48 file formats. We present our progress thus far, detailing calculational methods, and showing comparisons with other available data. We conclude with plans for the future.

“…Some AA models use Burguss-Merts (BM) formulae to calculate dielectronic recombination (DR). [6] Zhao et al [7,8] proposed a way to calculate DR rates under AA model and pointed out that BM formulae are not adequate to be used in AA model. Recently, a new NLTE AA model is developed in which autoionization and resonantcapture are accounted.…”

Based on the detailed configuration accounting (DCA) model, a method is developed to include the resonant photoionization and the excitation-autoionization in the non-local thermodynamical equilibrium (NLTE) average atom (AA) model. Using this new model, the mean charge states and the opacity are calculated for NLTE high- plasmas and compared with other results. The agreement with AA model is poor at low electron density. The present results agree well with those of DCA model within 10%. The calculations show that the NLTE effects on opacity are strong.
