Abstract
Abstract At present time the project of Kazakh material science tokamak KTM is under implementation. In addition to solving problems in the study of materials for fusion technologies on tokamak is working out innovative design elements of the divertor. The design of the lithium divertor module based on lithium capillary-porous systems has been developed and successfully tested under real tokamak conditions. In this design, the solution to the problem of removal of heat flows of high density was implemented through the use of a liquid metal coolant based on the eutectic alloy Na-K. Requirements to improve the safety and compatibility of the design of the divertor with other in-vessel elements of the tokamak, cooled by water, and limiting the temperature of the lithium receiving surface at <600°C at heat flows of 10-20 MW/m2 led to the creation of a new design solution for the experimental module of the divertor and the use of a new coolant – gas dispersed water flow (gas-water spray). The article describes and justifies the design solutions of the new version of the module, the parameters of the coolant and the cooling system scheme. Experimental results on determination of heat transfer coefficient for coolant based on gas-water spray are considered
