Materials for breeding blankets [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Materials, 1996 There are several candidate concepts for tritium breeding blankets that make use of a number of special materials. These materials can be classified as Primary Blanket Materials, which have the greatest influence in determining the overall design and performance, and Secondary Blanket Materials, which have key functions in the operation of the blanket ...

Blanket materials for dt fusion reactors [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Materials, 1981 Abstract This paper presents an overview of the critical materials issues that must be considered in the development of a tritium breeding blanket for a tokamak fusion reactor that operates on the D-T-Li fuel cycle. The primary requirements of the blanket system are identified and the important criteria that must be considered in the development of ...

AEROGEL BLANKET INSULATION MATERIALS FOR CRYOGENIC APPLICATIONS [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010 Aerogel blanket materials for use in thermal insulation systems are now commercially available and implemented by industry. Prototype aerogel blanket materials were presented at the Cryogenic Engineering Conference in 1997 and by 2004 had progressed to full commercial production by Aspen Aerogels.

Performance of Insulating Materials for Future Fusion Blankets [PDF]
, 1983 In all fusion reactors using the deuterium-tritium fuel cycle, a large fraction (~80%) of the fusion energy will be released as ~14 MeV neutrons. These neutrons must be slowed down in a relatively thick blanket surrounding the plasma and their kinetic energy converted to high temperature heat.

ITER solid breeder blanket materials database [PDF]
, 1993 The databases for solid breeder ceramics (Li{sub 2},O, Li{sub 4}SiO{sub 4}, Li{sub 2}ZrO{sub 3} and LiAlO{sub 2}) and beryllium multiplier material are critically reviewed and evaluated. Emphasis is placed on physical, thermal, mechanical, chemical stability/compatibility, tritium, and radiation stability properties which are needed to assess the ...

Recent advances in the development of solid breeder blanket materials [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Materials, 1984 Increasing attention in breeder blanket development has been given to the lithium-containing ceramic materials. The most promising of these materials include Li2O, Li8ZrO6, Li4SiO4, and γ-LiAlO2. Recent studies have focused on Li2O because of its high tritium breeding potential and good thermal characteristics.

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF BLANKET MATERIALS TEST MODULES FOR A-FNS
CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF BLANKET MATERIALS TEST MODULES FOR A-FNSAdvanced Fusion Neutron Source (A-FNS) is based on a 40 MeV, 125 mA deuteron accelerator with liquid Li target. Now, we are performing conceptual designs of A-FNS and its test modules. A-FNS provides 8 kinds of test modules for fusion reactor materials.
