Abstract: The modeling results for tokamak EAST are presented obtained with the new version of SOLPS-ITER 3.2.0 code specially designed for the edge plasma transport description up to the camber wall with the account of its shape. For the first time the modeling with account of ExB drift and diamagnetic drift in the inhomogeneous magnetic field is performed on the unstructured grid including triangle cells in the chamber wall vicinity. The electrostatic potential distribution is obtained. The modeling results are compared with experiment, with the calculation on the narrower structured grid, and with the calculation without drifts.

Keywords: SOLPS-ITER, EAST, wide grid, drifts.
