In this paper we present the comparison of simulations with the numerical codes COREDIV and SOLPS5.0 for JET L‐mode discharges with ITER like wall (ILW). The simulations have been performed for L‐mode shots with and without nitrogen seeding (#82291 ‐ 9) which are characterised by relatively low auxiliary heating power ( P NBI = 1.1 MW) and low electron density ( n e = 2.35 × 10 19 m –3 ). Comparisons are made to the experimental measurements (e.g. radiation levels, plasma profiles) and the differences between the results from the two codes (e.g. temperature and density profiles at the outer divertor plate) are shown and discussed.
