Abstract
This paper presents our experience with precipitation hardened CuCrZr in the fabrication of actively cooled components for Tore Supra (toroidal pump limiter fingers, guard limiter heat sink hollow-profiles, ripple protection tubes, endoscope heads) and JET high heat flux elements for the beam-lines. The supposed interplay phenomenon between CuCrZr procurement, component geometry and welding procedure is discussed. The associated mechanical characterisation of materials from different suppliers and component joinings, focused especially on CuCrZr-CuCrZr fusion weldings using electron beams (EB), is presented.
