ITER-IA 3D MHD Simulations of Shattered Pellet Injection(SPI) -- D1.3 Code Validation (DIII-D)

This report is in partial fulfillment of deliverable D1.3 Code Validation (DIII-D). These simulations focus on thermal quench phase of the SPI mitigation and are not typically carried beyond it to the current spike and subsequent current quench. NIMROD SPI simulations[1] are validated against DIII-D experiments. The target plasma for these simulations is DIII-D 160606@02990ms.
