Abstract

The results of experiments on powerful plasma stream-surface interaction in conditions of heat loads typical for current disruptions in reactor-tokamak ITER are presented here. The long pulse powerful plasma streams are generated with quasi-steady-state plasma accelerator QSPA Kh-50. The morphology of surfaces of tungsten and graphite, as well as surface of combined tungsten-graphite targets exposed to powerful plasma streams is analyzed. Some erosion properties of these materials are presented and compared with results of numerical simulations.
