Helium loops of an ITER HCPB test blanket module
17th IEEE/NPSS Symposium Fusion Engineering (Cat. No.97CH36131), 2002The operation of a He cooled pebble bed (HCPB) test blanket module for ITER requires three helium loops which are being designed for (a) tritium extraction, (b) heat removal, and (c) coolant purification. The main design data as well as flow diagrams of the loops are presented.

Test Strategy for the European HCPB Test Blanket Module in ITER
Fusion Science and Technology, 2005According to the European Blanket Programme two blanket concepts, the Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) and a Helium Cooled Lithium Lead (HCLL) will be tested in ITER. During 2004 the test blanket modules (TBM) of both concepts were redesigned with the goal to use as much as possible similar design options and fabrication techniques for both types in ...

Analysis of three LOCAs for the European HCPB test blanket system
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2007Three LOCA sequences have been analysed in the frame of the safety assessment of the European helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) test blanket module (TBM) system. These three sequences have been selected as representative of accidents judged to cover all scenarios envisaged in the design basis involving the TBMs. The three groups of accidents investigated

Preliminary engineering assessment of the HCLL and HCPB Neutron Activation System
2015 4th International Conference on Advancements in Nuclear Instrumentation Measurement Methods and their Applications (ANIMMA), 2015The Neutron Activation System (NAS) is one of the four types of neutronics sensors considered for the testing of the HCLL and HCPB Test Blanket Module (TBM) in ITER. It measures the absolute neutron flux intensity with information on the neutron spectrum in selected positions of the TBM.

Activation and afterheat analyses for the HCPB test blanket module in ITER
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2008Abstract To provide a sound data basis for the safety analyses of the HCPB TBM system in ITER, the afterheat and activity inventories were assessed making use of a code system that allows performing 3D activation calculations by linking the Monte Carlo transport code MCNP and the fusion inventory code FISPACT through an appropriate interface.

Integration of the EU HCPB Test Blanket Module system in ITER
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2006The integration of the HCPB Test Blanket Module (TBM) systems into ITER has been investigated with the aim to check the compatibility between the considered systems and ITER. In particular the requirement of a simple and quick TBM replacement is considered in this paper.

Neutronic design issues of the WCLL and HCPB power plant models
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2003Abstract This work addresses neutronic design issues of the two near term reactor models of the EU Power Plant Conceptual Study (PPCS) employing the water cooled lithium lead (WCLL) and the helium cooled pebble bed (HCPB) blankets for the tritium and the power production.

Non-linear failure analysis of HCPB Test Blanket Module
Fusion Engineering and Design, 2012Abstract For the European Helium Cooled Pebble Bed Test Blanket Module (HCPB-TBM) the reduced activation ferritic martensitic (RAFM) steel EUROFER 97 is selected as a structural material. During operation the TBM will be subjected to complex thermo-mechanical loadings which yield at certain positions of the structure to stresses beyond the design ...
