Abstract

The purpose of this work is to characterize the pure tungsten material at higher temperature for high heat flux or plasma facing components in divertor application in fusion reactor. The objective of this paper is to develop the finite element analysis method to compare the results with experimental results. True stress- true plastic strain data of tungsten at 900°C are considered for developing finite element method. Strain rate of 0.001 s-1 was given as an input and load-displacement curve obtained from tensile test considered as an output. In finite element analysis, true stress-true plastic strain plot is generated by giving strain rate to the tensile specimen as same in experimental situation and also compare with theoretical values. Ultimate tensile strength is calculated as 529.5 MPa. Finite element analysis was carried out in ABAQUS software.
