The design concept and performance characteristics of the first wall design for the phase-1 INTOR (International Tokamak Reactor) study is described. The reference design consists of a water-cooled stainless steel panel. The major uncertainty regarding the performance of the bare stainless steel wall relates to the response of a thin melt layer predicted to form on limited regions during a plasma disruption. A more complex backup design, which incorporates radiatively cooled graphite tiles on the inboard wall, is briefly described.
