Abstract
A range of models were developed for predicting temperature at the top of the pedestal which occured at the edge of H-mode plasma in tokamaks. These models were based on six theory-motivated scalings for the width of the pedestal. The computed pedestal temperatures were compared with more than 500 measured pedestal temperatures for type 1 ELMy H-mode discharges in four tokamaks.
