In a power plant scale fusion reactor, huge amount of thermal produced by the reaction and external heating must be exhausted through narrow area divertor targets. The targets withstand intense bombardment diverted particles where high heat fluxes are generated erosion takes place on surface. A considerable volumetric nuclear also exhausted. To cope with such an unprecedented exhaust challenge, highly efficient cooling capacity is required. Furthermore, fulfill other critical functions as...
The scope of the EUFOfusion Work Package Breeding Blanket is to develop a blanket concept for EU DEMO reactor; this includes segments inside Vacuum Vessel and related Tritium Extraction/Removal Systems. In Pre-Concept Design (PCD) Phase, two concepts have been selected as candidates; solid liquid breeder cooled with helium water, respectively. design these systems has adapted plant developed in PCD Phase performances assessed. A large R&D programme implemented evaluate different technologies...
The helium cooled lithium lead (HCLL) blanket concept was originally developed in CEA at the beginning of 2000: it is one two European concepts to be tested ITER form a test module (TBM) and four currently being considered for DEMOnstration reactor that will follow ITER. TBM highly optimized component environment provide crucial information development DEMO blanket, but its design needs adapted reactor. With respect design, reduction steel content breeding zone (BZ) sought order maximize...
One of the main nuclear materials is austenitic stainless steels, which have good ductility and toughness, high thermal expansion coefficients a conductivity lower than that martensitic or ferritic steels. The 316L(N) steel (X2CrNiMo17-12-2 with controlled nitrogen) evaluated for structures such as vessels, are enclosures surrounding reactor core its assemblies, in fourth generation systems. RCC-MR code, used frame reference manufacture SFR (Sodium Fast Reactor concept), recommends use...
