The equilibrium of the plasma limited by the material limiter or the separatrix in the linear stellarator system was solved numerically by the finite difference method. The expansion and the deformation of the plasma column due to the longitudinal plasma current and the plasma pressure were obtained and were in agreement with the predicted values in the simple case where the analytical solutions were already found.
