Name:FAFNER2
Description:FAFNER2 is a 3D code adapted to the TJ-II helical axis stellarator from the original one developed by Lister at Max Planck IPP [1], but it can be easily adapted to any other device since the TJ-II geometry is an independent module. It simulates by Monte Carlo methods the Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) technology (a key heating method for most of the fusion experiments worldwide). The Grid version runs on X86 technology instead of MIPS and does the parallelization process by DRMAA API, existing an MPI version too for Grid and/or HPC.
