In the present study, the Magneto-Thermo-Hydrodynamic-Lithium (MaTH-Li) loop is
established to carry out fundamental studies on the liquid metal (LM) components. In the first …

For the demonstration of fusion power plant technology, DEMO dedicated materials are
necessary to cope with the harsh environment of high energy neutrons. For this purpose, the …

The reconstruction of liquid–air interfaces in three-dimensional (3D) space is of great value
for many practical and scientific applications, from manufacturing automation to naval …

Wakes appearing downstream of disturbances on the surface of a water flow in a concave
open channel were examined experimentally. The investigated channel geometry was …

Liquid lithium (Li) jet is planned as a beam target in fusion neutron sources (FNSs), such as
IFMIF, A-FNS and IFMIF-DONES. For the safety and the efficiency of such FNSs, the high …

Liquid lithium (Li) jet is planned as a beam target in fusion neutron sources (FNSs), such as
IFMIF in Japan and EU, A-FNS in Japan and IFMIF-DONES in EU. For the safety and the …

Novel accelerator applications favor free-surface liquid–metal flows, in which the liquid acts
both as a target producing secondary particles but also to remove efficiently the heat …

The Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activities (EVEDA) of the International
Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility (IFMIF) have been started. As Japanese activities for the …

Liquid metals interest fusion science researchers engaged in developing innovative fusion-
related devices, such as the first walls of inertial confinement fusion reactors [1, 2] and …

Lithium target flow experiment is conducted at Osaka University, for International Fusion
