Radiation effect of superconducting magnet materials for fusion reactors

  • 1. Osaka Univ., Suita (Japan). Faculty of Engineering

Description

The effects of neutron irradiation on Nb-Ti wire were studied, using the experimental reactor KUR. In the first part, the significance of superconducting magnets for fusion power reactors is explained together with the outline of the recent conceptual design of fusion reactors. In the second part, some results of the neutron irradiation experiment performed on the Nb-Ti materials (Nb-59.8 a/o Ti and Nb-47.6 a/o Ti) stabilized with copper are presented. Taking neutron irradiation as a parameter, some important parameters such as critical current density and critical temperature were obtained as the functions of aging time. Based on these results, the effects of neutron irradiation are discussed. Finally, the developmental efforts to be exerted hereafter are summarized. (Aoki, K.)
