The non-renewable energy sources coal, oil and natural gas that contribute the major share of the world's energy, will be running out in the next 40-80 years. With the growing energy demands especially in developing countries, which is likely to surpass that of the developed countries in next 50 years, an alternate energy source is the need to the hour. The nuclear fusion energy is foreseen as one of the potential candidates to solve the current global energy crisis. One of the major challenges faced by the fusion community is the problem of power exhaust. With the larger fusion devices to be built in the future, the heat load on the plasma facing components are expected to grow higher. The present work explores two numerical studies performed on the Wendelstein 7-X, the world's largest stellarator type fusion device, to cope with this problem. The first project on `'Numerical Studies on the impact of Connection Length in Wendelstein 7-X'' identifies magnetic configuration with long connection lengths, which could bring down the peak heat fluxes onto the divertor to manageable levels, by greater role of cross-field transport which may assist to get a wider heat deposition profile. The second project on `'Development of Heating Scenario to Reduce the Impact of Bootstrap Currents in Wendelstein 7-X'' advocates a novel self-consistent approach to reach high plasma density at full heating power without overloading the divertor during the transient phase of the evolution of the ...
