Abstract
Plasma facing components (PFC) for modern steady state fusion devices have to withstand heat fluxes up to 20 MW m−2. In case of internal defects in the components, a critical heat flux event can occur at an incident heat flux lower than expected in a defect-free component. It is therefore essential to develop in-vessel means for on line safety monitoring to prevent PFC destruction, and health monitoring during shutdown to control PFC damage. Two methods are developed in this paper, covering these topics.
