Analysis of sweeping heat loads on divertor plate materials
The heat flux on the divertor plate of a fusion reactor is probably one of the most limiting constraints on its lifetime. The current heat flux profile on the outer divertor plate of a device like the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is highly peaked with narrow profile. The peak heat flux can be as high as 30-40 MW/m 2 with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the order ...
متن کاملSummary of R&D Activities for the Production of the Divertor Target Elements of Wendelstein 7-X
The realization of the high heat flux divertor of the stellarator Wendelstein 7-X requires the production of 890 target elements. Since the divertor has to operate for 30 minutes with an input cw plasma power of 10 MW, the target elements need to be actively water-cooled. A target element is made of a CuCrZr copper alloy heat sink armored with CFC NB31 tiles. It is designed to remove a stationa...
متن کاملFabrication of TiCx-TiB2/Al Composites for Application as a Heat Sink
Metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particles have become the most attractive material in the research and development of new materials for thermal management applications. In this work, 40-60 vol. % TiCx-TiB₂/Al composites were successfully fabricated by the method of combustion synthesis and hot press consolidation in an Al-Ti-B₄C system. The effect of the TiCx-TiB₂ content on the...
متن کاملWater-cooled Heat Load Chopper for High-energy Synchrotron Experiments
FIGURE 2. Traditional X-ray scattering experiment setup. Photo Credit: Argonne National Laboratory. In addition to the setup shown in Figure 2, time resolution at BioCARS is provided by precise synchronization of additional beam blocking equipment placed before the sample under test—two rotating disk choppers and a shutter [2]. The X-ray beam is intercepted by a watercooled heat load chopper wh...
متن کاملSynthesis of copper coated carbon nanotubes for aluminium matrix composites
In this investigation copper coated carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were prepared to enhance the interfacial bonding between CNTs and aluminum matrix by the molecular-level mixing process. In optimized plating bath of (1:1) by wt. CNT with Cu, thickness of coated CNTs is reduced to 100 nm to promote uniform distribution of Cu nanoparticle on the surface of pretreated CNTs. The mixing of CNTs was accomp...
