Abstract: An assessment of two first wall materials, H-451 nuclear graphite and chemical vapor deposited silicon carbide, is given. A compilation of materials properties is presented. This is followed by temperature profiles and limitations and stress distribution and effects. Next, a discussion is given on the coupling of these ceramic materials to a metal, for enhancement of heat transfer from the first wall to the coolant circuits. (MOW)
