Stavila}, title = {Post-test examination of a Li-Ta heat pipe exposed to H plasma in Magnum PSI}, abstract = {The authors exposed a radiatively cooled, Li-filled tantalum (Ta) heat pipe (HP) to a H plasma in Magnum PSI continuously for ˜2 h. We kept the overall heat load on the inclined HP constant and varied the tilt to give peak heat fluxes of ˜7.5–13 MW/m2. The peak temperature reached ˜1250 °C. This paper describes the post-test analysis and discusses Li HPs with materials other than Ta for fusion. A companion paper describes the experiment.}, year = {2019}, journal = {Fusion Engineering and Design}, volume = {146}, pages = {2603-2607}, month = {09/2019}, doi = {10.1016/j.fusengdes.2019.04.053}, language = {eng}, }
