Tritium production and processing systems for ST-E1

Nuclear Fusion
An integrated tritium fuel-cycle architecture has been developed for ST-E1, a low-aspect-ratio, high-power fusion power plant. The approach couples a helium-cooled liquid-lithium breeder blanket with a dedicated circulation loop providing tritium ...

Densification behavior of ceramic tritium breeder pebble beds under vertical vibration: Effect of vibration parameters

Nuclear Materials and Energy
Packing density of the tritium breeder pebble beds are closely related to the effective density of the lithium atom in the breeding cavities. And the higher the density of lithium atoms the higher the tritium breeding ratio.

Optimized Water Distillation Layout for Detritiation Purpose

Applied Sciences
Tritium permeation constitutes a key issue for the future EU-DEMO, especially in the Breeding Blanket (BB) where fusion energy must be delivered to the Primary Heat Transport System (PHTS) and where tritium must be bred.

ParaStell: parametric modeling and neutronics support for stellarator fusion power plants

Frontiers in Nuclear Engineering
The three-dimensional variation inherent to stellarator geometries and fusion sources motivates three-dimensional modeling to obtain accurate results from computational modeling in support of design and analysis of first wall, blanket, and shield (FWBS ...

Behaviour of kittiwakes during the breeding season: relationships with nest density and breeding success [PDF]

, 2000
Activity budgets for kittiwakes at the nest site were determined for colonies on Tyneside during the pre-laying period in 1996 and for the Skomer Island colony during the pre-laying period in 1998 and for incubation and chick rearing in 1997 and 1998 ...

Selective Breeding in Organic Dairy Production [PDF]

, 2009
Organic dairy farming started to take off in the early 1990s, when the European Union laid down organic standards for animal production. Until now, however, only incidental steps have been taken towards organic breeding and organic farmers mainly use ...
