High heat flux components in fusion devices: from current experience in Tore Supra towards the ITER challenge
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract A pioneering activity has been developed by CEA and the European industry in the field of actively cooled high heat flux plasma facing components in Tore Supra operation, which is today culminating with the routine operation of an actively cooled toroidal pumped limiter (TPL) capable of sustaining up to 10 MW/m2 of nominal convected heat flux. This success is the result of a long lead development and industrialization program (about 10 years) marked out with a number of technical and managerial challenges that were taken up and has allowed us to build up a unique experience feedback database, which is displayed in the paper.
