The derived heat flux pattern show multiple distinct strike lines depending on the equilibrium magnetic configuration. Predictions of such divertor heat loads thus require a modeling of the magnetic configuration and the heat transport in the magnetic edge. Equilibrium magnetic topologies were analyzed with HINT2, while the plasma fluid model code EMC3 was used to simulate the energy transport in the edge. The measured multi peak structure of the divertor heat flux is correlated to the intersection points of elongated loop shaped flux tubes of long LC field lines. But the fluid model could not recreate the total energy load and the multiple heat flux peaks on the divertor. A Variation in the plasma density ne as a transport parameter in order to fit the simulated heat flux to the measured one shows a contradicting tendency.}, title = {Comparison of Observed Divertor Heat Flux and Modeling Results at LHD}, volume = {8}, year = {2013} }
