Abstract: Long pulse discharges in the Large Helical Device have often been interrupted by large amounts of dust particle emission from the divertor region caused by the exfoliation of carbon-rich mixed material deposition layers. The plasma wall interaction code ERO2.0 has provided the simulation results of the three-dimensional distribution of the carbon flux density in the divertor region which is quite reasonable with the observed distribution of the carbon-rich deposition layers. The code has also succeeded in reproducing the reduction of the carbon deposition layers on dome plates by changing the target plate configuration in the divertor region. The ERO2.0 simulations have also successfully explained dust particle emission from the inboard side near the equatorial plane for the new target plate configuration at the termination of a long pulse discharge. These simulation results prove that the ERO2.0 code is applicable to predicting the possible position from where the dust particles are released, and to designing an optimized divertor configuration for performing stable long pulse discharges with controlled dust particle emission.
