Tritium depth profile and its temperature programmed desorption rate were determined for selected samples cut out of beryllium tiles removed from the Joint European Torus vacuum vessel during 2012 shut down. A dissolution method under controlled conditions was used to determine tritium in samples, whereas experiments performed assess release pattern. Released measured using a proportional gas flow detector. Prior experiments, plasma-facing surfaces studied by scanning electron microscopy...
In this study, beryllium tiles from Joint European Torus (JET) vacuum vessel wall were analysed and compared regarding their position in the differences exploitation conditions during two campaigns of ITER-Like-Wall (ILW) 2011–2012 (ILW1) 2013–2014 (ILW2) Tritium content samples assessed. Two methods used to measure tritium – dissolution under controlled thermal desorption. Prior desorption experiments, scanning electron microscopy energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy study structure...
