Explosive cladding for ITER (International Thermo-nuclear Experimental Reactor) components
conference paper
The International Thermo-nuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is a huge experimental facility for the fusion energy research field to be built in the coming years in France. The extreme conditions (high temperatures, extremely large heat loads, thermal fatigue, and nuclear radiation) require very special materials and bonding of dissimilar metals. TNO develops the explosive cladding technology (as an alternative bonding mechanism) in order to demonstrate the potential of this bonding route for selected ITER components.
