The Lithium Evaporation EXperiment (LEEX) campaign on the Hybrid Illinois Device for Research and Applications (HIDRA) investigates helium retention effects induced by in-operando lithium evaporations into HIDRA. Lithium droplets were applied to tungsten samples and then exposed to a 600 s helium plasma at different distances, D, from the plasma edge. LEEX data has confirmed previous results at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign of in-operando lithium evaporations producing a low recycling regime for HIDRA helium plasmas and additionally proves the retained species is helium. The lithium evaporation from the D = 25 mm case had an 85.3% ± 1% increase in helium retention in the low recycling regime when compared to the steady state plasma of the LEEX control shot. Data presented substantiates previous helium retention claims and advances research surrounding liquid metal PFCs. A retention mechanism has not been identified, but further research utilizing HIDRA aims to investigate this. This study’s outcomes are thoroughly presented and provides additional justification for conducting further research on lithium’s behavior in fusion environments, given its substantial potential impact on the development of PFCs.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Fusion Energy features original research contributions and review papers examining and the development and enhancing the knowledge base of thermonuclear fusion as a potential power source. It is designed to serve as a journal of record for the publication of original research results in fundamental and applied physics, applied science and technological development. The journal publishes qualified papers based on peer reviews.
This journal also provides a forum for discussing broader policies and strategies that have played, and will continue to play, a crucial role in fusion programs. In keeping with this theme, readers will find articles covering an array of important matters concerning strategy and program direction.
