Computational analysis of propagation of geometrical uncertainties to tritium production in FNG WCLL experiment

Nuclear Engineering and Technology
We present a computational sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of the effect of geometrical uncertainties on the measured reaction rates in the Water Cooled Lithium Lead experimental benchmark, which is a mock-up of a tritium breeding blanket for the ...

Investigation on MELCOR Code Capabilities for the Simulation of Lithium–Lead Chemical Interactions for Fusion Safety Applications

Energies
In the WCLL-BB liquid blanket concept, among the postulated accidental scenarios to be investigated regarding the PbLi system, a loss of liquid metal is one of the most crucial for safety purposes.
