abstract = {We present a spatially hybrid fluid–kinetic neutral model
that consists of a fluid model for the hydrogen atoms in the
plasma grid region coupled to a kinetic model for atoms
sampled at the plasma–void interfaces and a fully kinetic
model for the hydrogen molecules. The atoms resulting from
molecular dissociation are either treated kinetically
(approach 1) or are incorporated in the fluid model
(approach 2). For a low-density JET L-mode case, the hybrid
method reduces the maximum fluid–kinetic discrepancies for
the divertor strike-point electron densities and electron
temperatures from approximately $150\%$ to approximately
$20\%$ for approach 1 and to approximately $40\%$ for
approach 2. Although the simulations with purely fluid
neutral model become more accurate for increasing upstream
plasma density, we still observe a significant improvement
by using the hybrid approach. When consuming the same CPU
time in averaging the electron strike-point densities and
temperatures over multiple iterations as for the simulations
with fully kinetic neutrals, hybrid approach 1 reduces the
statistical error with on average a factor 2.5. Hybrid
approach 2 further increases this factor to approximately
3.3, at the expense of accuracy.},
