Abstract
A new technique for studying high heat flux interactions with plasma facing components is presented. The beam from a continuous wave 300 W neodymium laser was focussed to 80 W/mm/sup 2/ and scanned at high speed over the surface of carbon tiles. These tiles were previously used in the TFTR inner limiter and have a surface layer of amorphous hydrogenated carbon that was codeposited during plasma operations. Laser scanning released up to 84% of the codeposited tritium. The temperature rise of the codeposit on the tiles was significantly higher than that of the manufactured material. In one experiment, the codeposit surface temperature rose to 1,770/spl deg/C while for the same conditions, the manufactured surface increased to only 1,080/spl deg/C. The peak temperature did not follow the usual square-root dependence on heat pulse duration.
期刊介绍:
19th-Century Music covers all aspects of Western art music between the mid-eighteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. We welcome--in no particular order--considerations of composers and compositions, styles, performance, historical watersheds, cultural formations, critical methods, musical institutions, ideas, and topics not named on this list. Our aim is to publish contributions to ongoing conversations at the leading edge of musical and multidisciplinary scholarship.
