A one-dimensional time dependent model of plasma particle and energy transport was used to predict the performance of an EBT experiment large enough to test confinement scaling in a parameter range (n, T, tau, etc.) close to reactor conditions. Such a device is referred to as EBT-P. The model is based on a computer code which uses the magnetic field lines as the basis for the coordinate system, and so includes some EBT geometrical effects, with neoclassical transport perpendicular to the surfaces of constant pressure. The geometry is self-consistent, i.e., the plasma pressure reacts on the magnetic field
