A 0-D model has been developed to study energy, particle, and internal flux confinement during the equilibrium phase in field-reversed configurations (FRC's). Earlier work has been extended to include: (1) a 1-D radial equilibrium pressure profile consistent with particle transport calculations; (2) a time-dependent treatment of impurity radiation losses; (3) a more consistent treatment of ohmic power. The 0-D model is described. Example numerical solutions are presented.
