  The IFMIF-EVEDA accelerator will be a 9 MeV, 125 mA cw deuteron accelerator prototype for verifying the validity of the accelerator design for IFMIF. A beam stop will be used for the RFQ and DTL commissioning as well as for the EVEDA accelerator tests. Therefore, this component must be designed to stop 5 MeV and 9 MeV deuteron beams with a maximum power of 1.12 MW. The first step of the design is the beam-facing material selection. The criteria used for this selection are low neutron production, low activation and good thermomechanical behavior. A thermomechanical analysis with ANSYS has been performed for a few materials which show good behavior from the radiological point of view. The input data are the expected beam shape and divergence at the beam dump entrance produced by the high energy beam line quadrupoles, a conical beam stop shape and the preliminary design of the cooling system. As a conclusion of the previous studies a conceptual design of the beam stop will be presented.
