- Summary
- Tungsten continues to be considered for use in fusion reactors because of its mechanical properties, good thermal shock resistance, and relatively high thermal conductivity. Low-cycle fatigue and tensile tests have been made at 1505 K on specimens fabricated from 12.7-mm thick cross-rolled tungsten plate which was prepared by a powder metallurgy process. All tests were made in vacuum, and the fatigue tests were made in strain control. The experimental fatigue data agree fairly well with the universal slopes equation, giving a slightly lower number of cycles to fail than predicted by the equation for a given strain range. Details of the test procedure are reported along with the experimental results. These data should support continued design work where tungsten is considered for application in pulsed reactor systems.
