Özet

Structural material selection in design of fusion reactors is very crucial. These structural materials should satisfy the hard conditions such as high thermo-mechanical stresses, high heat loads and severe radiation damage without compromising on safety considerations. The materials such as titanium, vanadium and chromium are used in the construction of fusion reactors. Therefore, it is important to examine these materials. Obtained results from the nuclear reactions using structural materials can be used for developing of these structural materials. For this reason, in this study cross sections of the Ti-46(alpha,n) Cr-49, Cr-50(alpha,n) Fe-53 and V-51(alpha,n) Mn-54 reactions have been calculated at 2-20 MeV energy range. In these theoretical calculations, the TALYS 1.8 and NON-SMOKER codes were used. Also, the astrophysical S-factors which describe the possibility of reaction in low energies were calculated. Results of our calculations were checked to the experimental data obtained from EXFOR database.
