摘要:
Part of the ITER experimental setup will be testing of the first wall blanket module built from EUROFER 97 steel. Lifetime of this component should be predicted with help of defect assessment procedure. This work verifies the application of the R5 assessment code on the 2D test blanket module geometry by using finite element simulations. Verification is based on the evolution of C(t) parameter. Results exhibit good correspondence in predictions provided by R5 and finite element method for different thermo-mechanical loading conditions. These results therefore show applicability of R5 procedure on such complex geometries. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
