Experimental simulations of thermal stage of ITER disruptions with relevant surface heat loads (energy density up to 30 MJ/m² ) were performed with a quasi-steady-state plasma accelerator QSPA Kh-50. It was found, that the melt motion driven by plasma pressure gradient dominates in tungsten macrosco...
