The surface temperature of the W coating increased up to 2000 °C at 15 MW m−2 for 5 s. No severe morphological changes, for example, melting, cracking and delamination were observed although recrystallization and grain growth were found in the W coating. Cyclic loading at 15 MW m−2 for 3 s with 50 cycles and additional 50 cycles with longer pulse length of 4 s produced again no severe morphological changes. Heat transfer analysis of the W-coated CFC sample during the high heat flux test showed that thermal resistance between W coatings and CFCs was negligibly low. This analysis also showed that the surface temperature of the 1 mm thick W coating on the actively cooled CFC monoblock divertor target in JT-60SA will be higher than the recrystallization temperature, 1200 °C, at the steady state heat flux of 15 MW m−2. Therefore, a reduction of armor thickness of the future actively cooled W-coated CFC monoblock divertor target in JT-60SA could be necessary to decrease the surface temperature to less than the recrystallization temperature.}, title = {High heat flux testing of mm-thick tungsten coatings on carbon-fiber composites for the JT-60SA tokamak}, volume = {T170}, year = {2017} }
