Abstract
The results of the ITER divertor modelling performed during the EDA
are summarised in the paper. Studies on the operating window and optimisation
of the divertor geometry are presented together with preliminary results on
the start-up limiter performance. The issue of model validation against the
experimental data which is crucial for extrapolation to ITER is also
addressed.
