Optimization of tritium breeding ratio in ARC reactor [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Engineering and Design, 2020
Abstract Affordable Robust Compact reactor is a conceptual design for a Tokamak conceived by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers. The design of this tokamak is under development and update. One of the key parameters for fusion reactor power plants is the tritium breeding ratio (TBR), which has to guarantee the tritium self ...

Tritium Breeding Blanket [PDF]

open access: yesFusion Technology, 1991
The terms of reference for ITER provide for incorporation of a tritium breeding blanket with a breeding ratio as close to unity as practical. A breeding blanket is required to assure an adequate supply of tritium to meet the program objectives. Based on specified design criteria, a ceramic breeder concept with water coolant and an austenitic steel ...

Effect of the various tritium breeding materials on the tritium breeding ratio in ARC fusion reactor

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Studies, 2023
This study deals with TBR (Tritium Breeding Ratio) performance of the four different types of molten salt (FLiBe, FLiNaK, FLiNaBe, FLiNaRb) which has four different Li-6 enrichment ratios (0%, 30%, 60%, 90%) Moreover, two different vacuum vessel materials (SiC composite and V4Cr4Ti alloy) have been used in ARC reactor geometry. In models with TBR ≥1.05,

Fast regression of the tritium breeding ratio in fusion reactors [PDF]

open access: yesMachine Learning: Science and Technology, 2023
Abstract The tritium breeding ratio (TBR) is an essential quantity for the design of modern and next-generation D-T fueled nuclear fusion reactors. Representing the ratio between tritium fuel generated in breeding blankets and fuel consumed during reactor runtime, the TBR depends on reactor geometry and material ...
