AbstractThis paper reviews sputtering erosion/redeposition modeling for plasma facing surfaces. Basics of the WBC Monte Carlo impurity transport code are described. An example analysis is shown for erosion of a liquid tin fusion reactor divertor. Multiyear erosion studies of candidate divertor and first wall coating materials (Li, Be, C, W, etc.) are summarized—showing generally serious erosion concerns for low-Z solid materials, and encouraging results for high-Z materials and liquid divertor surfaces. Future goals are discussed, e.g. for supercomputer modeling.
