By using the two-dimensional (2D) interchange turbulence model with plasma transport along magnetic field line, we have simulated the plasma blob formation and transport in the SOL regions. We have studied the effects of the plasma blob on the impurity transport by using impurity equations of motion in the trace impurity limit. The results show that the plasma blob transport direction is not only the radial direction but also poloidal direction due to the plasma transport along the magnetic field line. Also, the impurity ions are transported radially outward with the plasma blob transport and the velocity of the impurity ions transport is the same order to the plasma blob velocity radially outward. These results implied that the impurity transport with the plasma blob may possibly be not only diffusion but also convection. Moreover, this motion of the impurity ions seems like eddy motion. As a next step, we study relation between this eddy motion of impurity ions and the plasma blob motion. That is our future work.}, title = {Effects of the Plasma Blob Nonlinear Formation/Transport on Impurity Transport in the SOL Regions}, volume = {14}, year = {2019} }
