Development of ceramic breeder blankets in Japan

Fusion Engineering and Design, 1998
Ceramic breeding blankets are the main options for DEMO reactor designs in JAERI, and large efforts have been made in the area of related materials development, engineering-scaled R&D, as well as design development. A long-term R&D program was launched in 1996 to provide an engineering database and fabrication technologies for the DEMO blanket and its ...

Helium-Cooled, Flibe Breeder, Beryllium Multiplier Blanket

Fusion Technology, 1985
The concept described for the blanket surrounding a fusion reaction chamber is based on the use of molten fluoride salts to convert fusion energy into electricity and to breed the tritium fuel for the fusion power plant. Helium cools the first-wall and the blanket internals, which consist of a bed of beryllium balls in which neutrons are multiplied ...

Fission Reactor Experiments for Solid Breeder Blankets

Fusion Technology, 1986
Solid breeder blanket testing needs have been characterized in the FINESSE study. These testing needs have unique characteristics, especially in comparison to liquid breeder blankets. First, there are a large number of potential breeder materials and material variables. Secondly, the influence of radiation on the primary uncertainties is large, but the

Engineering Scaling Requirements for Solid Breeder Blanket Testing

Fusion Science and Technology, 2005
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 ...
