Under the anticipated operating conditions for demonstration magnetic fusion reactors beyond ITER, structural and plasma-facing materials will be exposed to unprecedented of irradiation, heat flux, temperature. While such extreme environments remain inaccessible experimentally, computational modeling simulation can provide qualitative quantitative insights into response complement available experimental measurements with carefully validated predictions. For components as first wall divertor,...
Additive manufacturing (AM) rapidly produces complex shapes crucial for energy technologies and engineering designs. In this work, the microstructure mechanical properties of additive manufactured Grade 91 (modified 9Cr–1Mo) ferritic/martensitic (FM) steel were investigated. Computational thermodynamics, synchrotron X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, microhardness testing utilized to quantify (crystallographic phases, microstrain), lattice parameters, as functions build...
The chemical interactions in Fe–HfH2 metal matrix composites (MMCs) are studied across multiple length scales to elucidate the decomposition of parent phases and corresponding reaction zone physics during direct current sintering. were synthesized with increasing as-mixed hydride contents Fe–25% HfH2, Fe–40% Fe–55% Fe–70% HfH2 (all vol. %) demonstrate ability achieve sintered MMCs target contents. Samples probed through a multi-modal workflow employing x-ray diffraction, scanning electron...
