【 摘 要 】

Estimates are given for the loading induced in the wall armor of the fusion chamber caused by ablative thermal radiation from the fusion plasma and by the hydrodynamic shock. Taking a version of the LIFE design as an example, the ablation pressure was estimated to be approx. 0.6 GPa with an approximately exponential decay with time constant approx. 0.6 ns. Radiation hydrodynamics simulations suggested that ablation of the W armor should be negligible.
