Dust Removal Experiments for ITER Blanket Remote Handling System
To reduce maintenance workers’ dose rate caused by activated dust adhering to the ITER blanket remote handling system (BRHS), dust must be removed from BRHS surfaces. Dust that adheres to the top surface of the BRHS rail from cyclic loading of the vehicle manipulator is considered to be the most difficult dust to remove. Dust removal experiments were conducted to simulate the materials, conditi...
متن کاملElectrostatic Dust Detection and Removal for ITER
We present some recent results on two innovative applications of microelectronics technology to dust inventory measurement and dust removal in ITER. A novel device to detect the settling of dust particles on a remote surface has been developed in the laboratory. A circuit board with a grid of two interlocking conductive traces with 25 μm spacing is biased to 30 – 50 V. Carbon particles landing ...
متن کاملMobile Robot Navigation for Remote Handling operations in ITER
This paper briefly summarizes the work related with mobile robotics developed by IST on the field of remote handling operations to be carried out in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) by a transfer casks system. The transport operations of contaminated and heavy loads inside ITER buildings requires optimized trajectories. Approaches of path planning and trajectory optim...
متن کاملTritium Modeling for Iter Test Blanket Module
HCPB (Helium Cooled Pebbles Bed) Test Blanket Model (TBM) is based on solid breeder. Tritium has to be extracted using Helium purge gas flowing through breeder pebbles bed. He-stream must be cooled down and processed and all these steps are carried out in TES (Tritium Extraction System). A modeling work has been performed to study the behavior of the TES of the HCPB TBM and for Molecular Sieve ...
متن کاملUS Plans and Strategy for ITER Blanket Testing
Testing blanket concepts in the integrated fusion environment is one of the principal objectives of ITER. Blanket test modules will be inserted in ITER from Day 1 of its operation and will provide the first experimental data on the feasibility of the D-T cycle for fusion. With the US rejoining ITER, the US community has decided to have strong participation in the ITER Test Blanket Module (TBM) ...
