The General Atomics TGYRO Code Suite (GYRO/NEO/TGYRO)
GYRO is a nonlinear tokamak microturbulence package designed to run on nearly all modern computing platforms, from an ultraportable laptop to the world's largest CRAY X1E/XT3/XT4 and IBM Blue Gene systems. Developed at General Atomics, GYRO uses a fixed (Eulerian) grid to solve the 5-D gyrokinetic-Maxwell equations. Operation is flexible, with the capability to treat
a local (flux-tube) or global radial domain, in a full or partial torus
general (shaped) or simple circular plasmas
adiabatic, drift-kinetic or gyrokinetic electrons with electrostatic or electromagnetic fluctuations
experimental or user-defined physical parameters
NEO is a multi-species drift-kinetic solver which enables a first-principles solution of the local neoclassical transport problem. It has the capability to treat
any number of Maxwellian species with arbitrary charge and mass.
full collisional coupling of all species using the Hirshman-Sigmar collision operator, and various reduced operators
general (shaped) or simple circular plasmas
experimental or user-defined physical parameters.
TGYRO is a parallel transport manager with the ability to call multiple instances of GYRO and NEO in order to obtain steady-state temperature and density profiles. It has the capability to include
turbulent fluxes from GYRO, TGLF or the simple IFS-PPPL model.
neoclassical fluxes from NEO, or from simple Hinton-Hazeltine theory.
