Design and verification of 1D magnetized linear inertial fusion simulation code

Combining PTS facility and magnetized linear inertial fusion (MagLIF) research, 1D simulation code MagLIF-1D was programmed based on MHD theory and DT fuel energy equations. Most challenges came from solving difficulties on boundary coupling, and its convenient to acquire key parameters such as liner velocity, magnetic field strength, fuel density and fusion yield directly from calculated output. Foundational comparisons with LASNEX and HYDRA codes were made to verify the MagLIF-1D code, and differences were discussed and analyzed. The achievements are substantial foundations for further exploring about MagLIF technology, and the calculated results are valuable for future experimental performance.
