3D MHD analysis of prototypical manifold for liquid metal blankets

Nuclear Fusion, 2023
The water-cooled lead lithium (WCLL) and the dual-cooled lead lithium (DCLL) are two of the breeding blanket (BB) concepts that the EUROfusion consortium is pursuing in the framework of the development of the fusion reactor industrial demonstrator DEMO ...

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

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

Information criteria determine the number of active sources [PDF]

, 1996
With the neuroelectromagnetic inverse problem, the optimal choice of the number of sources is a difficult problem, especially in the presence of correlated noise.
