内容記述 | A prototypical, high fuel volume fraction, thermionic emitter body was designed and tested. The emitter body is all tungsten, with a 1.40-cm ID, a 3.23-cm OD, and eight full-length axial fins. The emitter thickness is 0.15 cm while the fins and outer clad are 0.075 cm thick. Different methods of fabrication were used in making the test samples. Stress analysis was performed with a three-dimensional elastic code. Thermal testing of the samples, duplicating calculated radial temperature gradients, heatup and cooldown rates, and emitter body temperatures in operation, was performed with no structural failures noted (six heatup and cooldown cycles per sample). Further emitter analysis and testing is planned. |
