The UK National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) has been developing its capability in high‑temperature water corrosion over the past years in collaboration with the University of Bristol, UK. As part of this work, studies have been undertaken on nuclear fusion‑specific material Eurofer‑97, a reduced activation ferritic‑martensitic steel. Eurofe…

Plasma-wall interactions in a commercial-scale fusion power station may exert high transient thermal loads on plasma-facing surfaces, repeatedly subjecting underlying structural materials to high temperatures for short durations. Specimens of the reduced activation ferritic-martensitic steel Eurofer-97 were continuously aged at constant temperat…

The next generations of nuclear fusion reactors, including ITER and DEMO, will consider several different cooling systems for heat dissipation, power generation and tritium breeding. This includes the water-cooled lithium-lead blanket (WCLL) design, which bears significant similarities to the water-cooled circuit in a pressurised water fission reac…

The European DEMO design will potentially use single phase water cooling in various components that require protection against corrosion damage. Coolant conditions will be similar to fission PWRs but with additional considerations arising from the materials of choice (Eurofer, CuCrZr), 14 MeV neutron irradiation, the presence of tritium, and strong…
