摘要

The workload for the Post Irradiation Examination Facility during the operation of IFMIF is evaluated in this paper based on the users' specifications. The foreseen irradiation and Post Irradiation Examination programmes presented in this paper are based on the IFMIF specifications proposed by IFMIF users' community, available irradiation volumes in the test modules and materials properties required to compile the materials database needed for design of DEMO reactors. Candidate materials to be tested, number of specimens, temperature range or radiation damage levels are the main parameters used as input for this assessment. The main assumptions made to draw a realistic scenario for the irradiation campaigns and post irradiation experiments are also described in this paper. An assessment of the required test machines is done. Long lasting experiments like fatigue test or crack growth test will determine the time required to complete the characterization of each set of specimens. In these cases several test machines working in parallel will be required.
