Impact of repetitive ELM transients on ITER divertor tungsten monoblock top surfaces

Impact of repetitive ELM transients on ITER divertor tungsten monoblock top surfaces

Owing to the high stored energy of ITER plasmas, the heat pulses due to uncontrolled Type I edge localized modes (ELMs) can be sufficient to melt the top surface of several poloidal rows of tungsten monoblocks in the divertor strike point regions. Coupled with the melt motion associated with tungste...
