Mario Merola,P. Chappuis,Frederic Escourbiac,M. Grattarola,Harri Jeskanen,Pentti Kauppinen,L Plöchl,Bertram Schedler,J. Schlosser,I. Smid,S. Tähtinen,R. Vesprini,Eliseo Visca,A. Zabernig +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, a blind non-destructive round robin test of the prototype, HHF test in FE200 electron beam (EB) facility, post-fatigue blind NDT test, and destructive examination were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
European development of the ITER divertor target
G. Vieider,Mario Merola,J.P. Bonal,P. Chappuis,D Duglué,R. Duwe,Frederic Escourbiac,M. Febvre,L. Giancarli,M. Grattarola,G LeMarois,H.D. Pacher,A. Pizzuto,L Plöchl,B. Riccardi,M. Rödig,J. Schlosser,I. Smid,P Tramier,C.H. Wu +19 more
TL;DR: The main European contribution to the ITER divertor project was the development of the divertor target with severe operating requirements such as peak heat loads of up to 20 MW/m2 as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manufacturing and testing of a prototypical divertor vertical target for ITER
Mario Merola,L Plöchl,Ph. Chappuis,Frederic Escourbiac,M. Grattarola,I. Smid,R. Tivey,G. Vieider +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a medium-scale divertor vertical target prototype has been manufactured by the EU Home Team, which consists of two units with one cooling channel each, assembled together and having an overall length and width of about 600 and 50 mm.
Book ChapterDOI
Comparison between various thermal hydraulic tube concepts for the ITER divertor
TL;DR: In this article, high heat flux tests on CuCrZr actively water cooled elements were performed with geometric and thermal hydraulic parameters relevant to ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) divertor conditions.
Book ChapterDOI
Manufacture and Testing of Small-Scale Moch-ups for the ITER Divertor
G. Vieider,C.A.F. Varandas,Ph. Chappuis,F. Serra,R. Duwe,R. Jakeman,Mario Merola,H.D. Pacher,I. Smid +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a small scale mock-up with carbon and tungsten armour for the divertor target at 20 MW/m2, and first tests support the analysis which indicates the best high heat flux capability for carbon mono-blocks.
