Thermofluid optimisation of additive manufacturing high heat flux components for fusion

The divertor is a key component in magnetic confinement fusion as it reduces plasma contamination and protects the inner walls by removing heat and plasma exhaust. Divertors in DEMO (a planned demonstration fusion power plant) are needed to experience peak heat fluxes of up to 70 MW m−2 and neutron...
