N2 - A lot of experimental observations in magnetic confinement devices show that the particle and thus heat transport in the scrape-off layer (SOL) of the plasma is characterized or even dominated by turbulent intermittency. In this contribution, we discuss the underlying parameters used in the ESEL code [1] (Edge SOL Electrostatic, a 2D interchange turbulence code). To this end, runs of the code, applied on the geometry of TEXTOR with relevant SOL-parameters, are analysed and compared to results of ohmic scenario experiments at first. In particular, we address again the -dependence (safety-factor at separatrix) of the generated intermittency.
