High-heat-load equipment for fusion reactors is repeatedly exposed to high-energy particles, high heat loads, and electromagnetic forces, and therefore requires high heat removal capabilities and durability against electromagnetic forces. For this reason, tungsten is used for the surfaces exposed to plasma, and the unit consists of a plasma-facing unit metallurgically bonded to a water-cooled heat removal structure and a structure that supports it. This theme calls for research and development to improve the performance of high-heat-load equipment for fusion reactors, including surface material modification, improving the heat removal performance and durability of the cooling structure, improving the manufacturability and inspectability of the support structure, and improving the quality of dissimilar material joining and welding. High heat flux components for fusion reactors are repeatedly exposed to high energy particles, high heat loads, and electromagnetic forces, requiring high heat removal capability and durability against electromagnetic forces. Therefore, the surfaces exposed to plasma are made of tungsten, metallurgically bonded to a water-cooled heat removal structure, which consists of a plasma-facing unit and its supporting structure. In this solicited theme, from the viewpoint of improving the performance of high heat load components for fusion reactors, research and development will be conducted on surface material modification, heat removal performance and durability of the cooling structure, fabrication and inspection of the support structure, and quality improvement of joining and welding between different materials.
