Abstract :
The paper reviews some aspects of finite element modeling of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) phenomena for fusion related research. Thus, Grand-Shafranov Equation (GSE) for plasma equilibrium has been solved for some simple excitation forms and the obtained numerical results for the rectangular and D-shape plasma, respectively have been presented. A good agreement with already published results in relevant literature has been shown. This paper should be referred as an opener to the numerical modeling of MHD phenomena for fusion related research.
