| Povzetek: | Within the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium, the Characterization of armour, heat sinks materials and joints sub-project of the Work Package Material (WP-MAT) has been dedicated to the development of different tungsten (W) monoblock mock-ups equipped with advanced materials for divertor target applications in the EU-DEMO fusion reactor. Assessing the status of the relevant joining interfaces of these mock-ups, not only after fabrication but throughout the whole component lifetime, plays a key role in the qualification process. At the ENEA Special Technologies Laboratory (TES), a number of facilities have been built to perform non-destructive inspections of plasma-facing components for fusion applications by ultrasonic testing (UT). The present work reports on the results of the UT inspections assessing the structural integrity of the relevant joining interfaces of three small-scale mock-ups provided with advanced W armour materials, specifically W-matrix with W2C inclusions consolidated by Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS), K-doped rolled W and K-doped laminated W. The UT examinations are carried out after fabrication and after the high heat flux tests (HHFT) at the neutral beam facility GLADIS. All results confirm the high-quality joining achieved by HIP and HRP. During the HHF tests of mock-ups, after a few hundred HHFT cycles defects are detected at the joining interfaces, due to debonding, delamination and W material cracks mainly affecting the loaded zone. The ultrasonic pulse-echo technique provides not only the size and position of the defects in the plane orthogonal to the ultrasonic beam, but also their depth in the material. During the analysis, the probe is inserted inside the pipe and the mock-up is examined in a cylindrical configuration. The coupling medium (demineralized water) is poured only inside the pipe. The main inspection parameters and the piezoelectric probes are chosen to obtain the maximum resolution in accordance with the thickness and joining interfaces to be analyzed. |
