In this research, the fluid plasma transport code SOLPS-ITER is applied and validated against experimental data from the plasma interaction surface component experimental station (PISCES)-RF linear plasma device to establish a physics basis for plasma and neutral transport in its two magnetic field (B-field) geometry setups-(1)the cusp and (2) non-cusp or linear B-field. The main focus of this study is to understand (1) radial plasma transport (2) heat and particle loads on the upstream dump and downstream target plate, and (3) the physics of plasma-neutral interactions in PISCES-RF. The simulation setup adheres to typical PISCES-RF experimental conditions, with a 2D helicon power deposition profile as an input heating source. SOLPS-ITER simulations reproduce experimental conditions with the Bohm diffusion model for both B-field configurations of the PISCES-RF experiment. Major energy loss channels include neutral radiation and power deposited on the wall and dump plate, with only 1 of the input power reaching the target. The ionization front is well confined near the dump plate due to the heating and puffing regions. Additionally, SOLPS-ITER simulation results are also found to be in very good agreement with the particle-in-cell calculations using the code-PICOS++ which supports the validity of SOLPS in low collisionality regime.
