High Heat Flux Testing Facility

This testing facility, the main platform of CRAFT project, consists of electron-beam generator, vacuum vessel system, and cooling water system. It can provide testing environment of high heat flux loading and thermal hydraulic performance for water-cooled divertor and blanket component.


High Temperature LiPb Loop

This facility is employed to characterize MHD/mixed convection of PbLi under high magnetic field;to coupling heat transfer performance with S-CO2 in blankets;to validate of design codes, methods and models for MHD/mixed convection;to perform engineering test of key component for reliability.



Supercritical CO2 Loop

This facility is used to characterize flow and heat transfer performance of FW;to Test coupling heat transfer performance with PbLi in blankets;to validate of design codes, methods and models for thermal hydraulics.
