Heat flux analysis of Type-I ELM impact on a sloped, protruding surface in the JET bulk tungsten divertor

Tungsten (W) melting due to transient power loads, for example those delivered by edge localised modes (ELMs), is a major concern for next step fusion devices. A series of experiments has been performed on JET to investigate the dynamics of Type-I ELM-induced transient melting. Following initial exp...
