Tritium Modeling for Iter Test Blanket Module
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 5A as adsorbent material. The result is the capability to model the extraction process of gaseous tritium compounds and to estimate the breakthrough curves of two main tritium gaseous species (H2 and HT).

Computational fluid dynamics simulations have demonstrated flow problems within the helium flow path in the current US DCLL ITER test blanket module design. New geometry for the helium flow path has been designed that will improve flow evenness and simplify the overall helium flow path within the test blanket module while maintaining the overall test blanket module geometry. Global changes to t...

One of the key components regarding heat transfer and tritium inventories in deuterium-tritium nuclear fusion reactors is the (tritium) Breeding Blanket, called Test Blanket Module or TBM in ITER experiment. Several designs are going to be tested in ITER, one of those is the HCLL (Helium Cooled Lithium Lead) design. Before being tested, it is of major interest to predict in detail several flow ...
متن کاملAn overview of dual coolant Pb–17Li breeder first wall and blanket concept development for the US ITER-TBM design
An attractive blanket concept for the fusion reactor is the dual coolant Pb–17Li liquid (DCLL) breeder design. Reduced activation ferritic steel (RAFS) is used as the structural material. Helium is used to cool the first wall and blanket structure, and the self-cooled breeder Pb–17Li is circulated for power conversion and for tritium breeding. A SiCf/SiC composite insert is used as the magnetoh...
