Abstract

The divertor of fusion reactor is expected to be influenced by high ­density load of 0.1–10 ms, 10 MW/m2 by particle radiation of disruption phenomenon and edge localized mode (ELM). It requires components which can tolerate this high temperature particle and heat flux. In this study, for the target design of high heat and particle load test equipment so as to develop the divertor component, we defined lithium lead (LiPb) as the coolant of divertor components at a temperature that allows efficient energy use. The outlet temperature of this coolant is aimed at 800°C. Flow condition of divertor coolant was numerically evaluated in the designed target made of silicon carbide (SiC) and tungsten (W). Experiment simulating the particle and heat load on the designed divertor component is also planned. The results of the numerical analysis are reflected in the development of the divertor component.
