Since 2014 preconceptual design activities for European DEMO divertor have been conducted as an integrated, interdisciplinary R&D effort in the framework of EUROfusion Consortium. Consisting two subproject areas, 'Cassette' and 'Target', this project has objective to deliver a holistic concept together with key technological solutions materialize design. In paper, brief overview on recent results from is presented. subproject, overall cassette system engineered based load analysis...
The development of high temperature superconducting tape technology enabled the design compact fusion reactors, allowing faster in field. reduced size makes even more important evaluation neutron flux on all components and at every region, including magnet position, to assess lifetime materials their performances during operations. Compactness, however, introduces new technological challenges, considering space available for shielding consequently harsher radiation environment both...
Within the framework of International Energy Agency, an international collaborative study on fusion radioactive waste has been initiated to examine back end materials cycle as important stage in maximizing environmental benefits energy provider.The addresses management procedures for following changeout replaceable components and decommissioning facilities. We define this "the end" cycle. It includes all necessary manage spent from facilities, removal device reuse these through...
The tritium balance in DEMO reactor is a key factor for the success of production energy from thermonuclear fusion reactor. Three four breeder blankets (BBs) concepts candidates used eutectic Pb-16Li enriched at 90% 6Li as breeder, water-cooled lithium-lead, dual-coolant and helium-cooled lithium-lead (HCLL) BBs; therefore, design characterization extraction removal system (TER) PbLi with high efficiency are critical issue European Roadmap. In ITER research reactor, BB concept will be...
In the fight against climate change through progress of fusion technology, Affordable, Robust and Compact (ARC) reactor design is under development at Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) Massachusetts Institute Technology (MIT)- Plasma Science Center, in collaboration with Ente Nazionale Idrocarburi (ENI) S.p.A. The features demountable superconducting toroidal field coils a replaceable vacuum vessel immersed Fluorine Lithium Beryllium (FLiBe) molten salt blanket. low-pressure cools divertors...
