Enhancing the Performance of Plasma-facing Materials Through Solute-stabilized Nanostructured Tungsten Alloys

This report is a summary of the work completed under the auspices of the Department of Energy Early Career Award DE-SC0017899 entitled “Enhancing the Performance of Plasma-facing Materials Through Solute-stabilized Nanostructured Tungsten Alloys”. Summaries of initiatives on computational thermodynamics modeling, experimental alloy synthesis including traditional and additive manufacturing routes, several ion irradiation studies, and plasma exposures are reported.

Ice Detection and Mitigation Device

A method for deicing an aerostructure includes driving a sensing current through a heater element coated to an aerostructure, the heater element having a resistance that is temperature dependent. A resistance of the heater element is monitored. It is determined whether there is icing at the heater element using the monitored resistance of the heater element. A melting current is driven through the heater element when it is determined that there is icing at the heater element.
