Tritium transport analysis in HCPB DEMO blanket with the FUS-TPC code
Abstract In the breeding areas a significant fraction of the tritium produced is extracted out from the Breeding Zone by the He gas purging the breeding ceramic in the helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) blanket concept or transported in solution by the flowing liquid metal alloy in the helium cooled lead lithium (HCLL) blanket concept and then extracted

RAMI analysis for DEMO HCPB blanket concept cooling system
Abstract A preliminary RAMI (reliability, availability, maintainability and inspectability) assessment for the HCPB (helium cooled pebble bed) blanket cooling system based on currently available design for DEMO fusion power plant is presented. The following sub-systems were considered in the analysis: blanket modules, primary cooling loop including ...

An enhanced, near-term HCPB design as driver blanket for the EU DEMO
Abstract The Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) breeding blanket is a candidate as driver blanket for the EU DEMO. The reference design of the HCPB is based on a cooling plate “sandwich” arrangement built in Multi-Module Segments. This architecture significantly improved the tritium breeding performance (TBR = 1.15) and the plant circulating power (≈130

Tritium modelling in HCPB breeder blanket at a system level
Abstract Tritium behavior in a DEMO reactor is a key design issue because of its self-sufficiency and impact on safety. Considering the difficulty in handling tritium, and that the transport, diffusion and permeation phenomena involve a large number of physical properties and parameters, it is intended to prepare a simulation tool to predict its ...

Tritium transport analysis of HCPB blanket for CFETR
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2016Abstract Based on the HCPB (Helium-Cooled Pebble Bed) blanket of CFETR (Chinese Fusion Engineering Testing Reactor), a more detailed tritium cycle model of HCPB blanket was developed by modeling the breeding parts inside the blanket separately. Utilizing the detailed model, tritium transport analysis of HCPB blanket was carried out.

Developments on the tritium extraction and recovery system for HCPB
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2020Abstract The tritium release from the ceramic materials of the DEMO Breading Blanket (BB) is a complex mechanism due mainly to the chemistry of the interface between the breeder material and the purge gas. The tritium atomic form produced inside the ceramics structure is converted into tritiated water at the surface of the breeder material due to ...

Analyses of the shielding options for HCPB DEMO blanket
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2020Abstract The enhancement of the HCPB DEMO blanket shielding capability is a challenging issue that assumes complex studies involving numerous neutronics analyses based on the Monte Carlo simulations with MCNP code. To this end very detailed, fully heterogeneous MCNP geometry models were developed for the latest designs of the HCPB and WCLL DEMO ...
