Tritium Extraction from Lithium–Lead Eutectic Alloy: Experimental Characterization of a Permeator against Vacuum Mock-Up at 450 °C

Energies, 2023
Tritium extraction is one of the key open issues toward the development of the WCLL BB (Water-Cooled Lithium–Lead Breeding Blanket) of EU DEMO reactors, and different technologies have been proposed to address it. Among them, the Permeator Against Vacuum

Test Series D experimental results for SIMMER code validation of WCLL BB in-box LOCA in LIFUS5/Mod3 facility

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2020
Abstract The in-box LOCA (Loss of Coolant Accident) is a relevant safety issue for the design of the WCLL BB. Research activities are ongoing to master phenomena and processes occurring during the postulated accident, to enhance the predictive capability and reliability of numerical tools, and to validate computer models, codes and procedures for ...

Three-dimensional MHD flow and heat transfer in a channel with internal obstacle [PDF]

, 2018
The magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer of a liquid metal in a channel past a circular cylinder with walls of non-uniform conductivity were investigated. The applied magnetic field was transversal to the forced flow (x-direction) and coplanar with
