One of the most important missions of ITER is to provide a test bed for breeding blanket modules, which are called as test blanket module (TBM). JAEA has been extensively developing a water-cooled solid breeder test blanket module (WCSB TBM) for ITER. JAEA developed fabrication technology of F82H rectangular cooling tubes, and has successfully fabricated the near-full scale first wall mock-up of WCSB TBM by hot isostatic press (HIP) technique, which is fully made of F82H. The mock-up has been high-heat flux tested in the DATS facility in JAEA, which is an ion beam test facility. The inlet temperature of the cooling water is about 280 °C with 15 MPa, which is almost the same as the WCSB TBM design conditions. The mock-up has endured a heat load of 0.5 MW/m2, 30 s for 80 thermal cycles. Neither hot spots nor thermal degradation have been observed.
