Recent progress in research on tungsten materials for nuclear fusion applications in Europe

Michael Rieth, +70 more
TL;DR: In this article, the progress of work within the EFDA long-term fusion materials program in the area of tungsten alloys is reviewed, with a detailed overview of the latest results on materials research, fabrication processes, joining options, high heat flux testing, plasticity studies, modelling, and validation experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of Tungsten Material for the ITER Divertor

TL;DR: In this paper, a high heat flux test of tungsten monoblock components was conducted to understand correlation between the macro-cracks appearance and mechanical properties and possible update of acceptance criteria in the material specification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cracking failure study of ITER-reference tungsten grade under single pulse thermal shock loads at elevated temperatures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined cracks in an ITER-reference tungsten grade under single thermal shock loading and found that the major cracks were generated due to the brittleness of the material and microcracks were formed in a process which was initiated by plastic deformation at high temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review on the EFDA programme on tungsten materials technology and science

TL;DR: The long-term objective of the EFDA fusion materials programme is to develop structural as well as armor materials in combination with the necessary production and fabrication technologies for future divertor concepts as mentioned in this paper.
