Abstract: TU1/316 l clad plates with a high thickness are used in nuclear fusion equipment as coil terminals. The technical specifications of clad plates for nuclear fusion equipment, such as the composite ratio, tensile strength, shear strength and scale of the interfacial wave, are significantly higher than those of clad plates for conventional applications. It is difficult to produce high-quality clad plates through explosive welding experiments alone. To manufacture high-quality TU1/316 L clad plates, the technical parameters of the explosive welding process were obtained and optimized by theoretical analysis and numerical calculations. A procedure for fabricating explosion bonded TU1/316 L clad plates was successfully determined through the combination of numerical calculations and experiments, and the bimetallic plates were used to manufacture international thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) components.
