The EU-DEMO first wall protection strategy relies on limiter components to face both normal and off-normal plasma transient events. The heat loads during these events are likely to damage the breeding blanket first wall otherwise. Since tungsten is the preferred plasma-facing material for EU-DEMO, the plasma-facing component design of the limite…

Within the EU-DEMO first wall protection framework, work on limiter’s plasma-facing component design has started under plasma disruptive events (Richiusa et al., 2022). Starting from the rationale behind the TARTIFL&TTE software (Richiusa et al., 2022), this companion paper describes the progress on the engineering modelling of the plasma-facing …

The protection strategy adopted for the European DEMOnstration (EU-DEMO) fusion power reactor foresees the use of sacrificial components–referred to as limiters–dealing with plasma-wall contacts. Their aim is to protect the first wall (FW) against the huge amount of plasma energy (up to GigaJoules) released in a few milliseconds during disrupti…

A low temperature jet impingement based heat sink module has been developed for potential application in a near-term fusion power plant divertor. The design is composed of a number of hexagonal CuCrZrsheets bonded together in a stack to form a laminate structure. This method allows the production ofcomplex flow paths using relatively simple manufac…
