چکیده
Testing TBM (Test Blanket Modules) is one of important engineering test objectives in ITER project. China is performing the TBM design and R&D based on Chinese development strategy of fusion DEMO. Helium-cooled test blanket module concept with ceramic breeder for testing on ITER will be one of the basic options in China. The current progress and status on design and R&D of CH HC-SB (Chinese Helium-cooled Solid Breeder) TBM are introduced briefly in this report. The modified designs of HC-SB TBM, related ancillary sub-systems and test strategy on ITER as well as relevant R&D activities are summarized.

An overview of US ITER test blanket module program
A testing strategy and corresponding test plan have been presented for the two proposed US candidate breeder blankets: (1) a helium-cooled solid breeder concept with ferritic steel structure and Be neutron multiplier, but without a fully independent TBM and (2) a dual-coolant helium-cooled ferritic steel structure with self-cooled LiPb breeding zone that uses a flow channel insert as MHD and th...
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) ...

A virtual test blanket module (VTBM) has been envisioned as a utility to aid in streamlining and optimizing the US ITER TBM design effort by providing an integrated multi-code, multi-physics modeling environment. Within this effort, an integrated simulation approach is being developed for TBM design calculations and performance evaluation. Particularly, integrated thermo-fluid/thermal-stress an...
متن کاملEngineering Scaling Requirements for Solid Breeder Blanket Testing
An engineering scaling process is applied to the solid breeder ITER TBM designs in accordance with the testing objectives of validating the design tools and the database, and evaluating blanket performance under prototypical operating conditions. The goal of scaling is to ensure that changes in structural response and performance caused by changes in size and operating conditions do not reduce ...
