Abstract :
The neutron-irradiation experiments PARIDE 1 and PARIDE 2 have been performed at 350°C and 700°C with fluences of 0.35 dpa. The major part of the post-irradiation tests are high heat flux simulation experiments carried out in the electron beam facility JUDITH. These tests cover thermal fatigue experiments with small-scale high heat flux components, and on the other hand, thermal shock tests on the plasma-facing materials. Actively cooled samples were made from CFC, or beryllium as plasma-facing materials and copper alloys as heat sink materials. Different designs (flat tile, monoblock) and joining techniques (brazing, welding) were used. Best performance was found for CFC/Cu monoblock mock-ups, but also the brazed Be/Cu flat tile mock-ups fulfill the operational requirements for first wall components. Thermal shock experiments show a higher erosion after neutron irradiation. This degradation is either due to a reduced thermal conductivity (carbon) or to a decreased ductility after irradiation (beryllium).
