Influence of hydrogen trapping on WCLL breeding blanket performances

open access: closedNuclear Fusion, 2021
Tritium transport simulations in Water-Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) breeding blankets have been performed with FESTIM. Fluid dynamics and heat transfer were coupled to evaluate how temperature and LiPb velocity fields affect Tritium transport. The 2D WCLL model consisted of tungsten, EUROFER and liquid LiPb. Tritium inventories and permeation fluxes have

A novel approach to the study of magnetohydrodynamic effect on tritium transport in WCLL breeding blanket of DEMO

open access: closedFusion Engineering and Design, 2021
Abstract The Water-Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) breeding blanket is one of the European blanket designs proposed for DEMO reactor. Tritium can permeate into the different structural materials, arising potential issues concerning the fuel self-sufficiency and can be lost into the environment with consequent radiological hazard for the population. Within

Pre-analysis of the WCLL breeding blanket mock-up neutronics experiment at the frascati neutron generator

open access: closedFusion Engineering and Design, 2020
Abstract The Water Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) is one of the breeding blanket (BB) concept candidate for the future European Demonstration Fusion Power Reactor (DEMO). In the frame of the EUROfusion Consortium, a WCLL BB mock-up neutronics experiment will be performed at the 14 MeV Frascati Neutron Generator (FNG) irradiation facility, devoted to the ...

Investigation on cooling performance of WCLL breeding blanket first wall for EU DEMO

open access: closedFusion Engineering and Design, 2019
Abstract The Breeding Blanket (BB) First Wall (FW) is the first boundary separating the fusion plasma and its energetic particles from the rest of a Tokamak. The heat load specifications at different poloidal positions are reviewed according to the maximum heat load (surface radiation and charged particles).

Tritium Transport in WCLL Outboard Breeding Blanket of EU-DEMO Reactor Under Pulsed Plasma Operation

open access: closedFusion Science and Technology, 2023
The accurate prediction of the tritium inventory and permeation fluxes in the water-cooled lithium-lead (WCLL) breeding blanket of the European DEMO fusion reactor is a key aspect for future thermonuclear power plant licensing. In this context, a tritium transport analysis is essential for the evaluation of the tritium retention in LiPb (15.7 at. % Li)

Multiphysics tritium transport modelling in WCLL breeding blankets: Influence of MHD effects and neutron damage

open access: closed, 2023
The replenishment of tritium fuel in a breeding blanket is fundamental for the operation of commercial DT fusion reactors. Accurate modelling of hydrogen transport and inventories within the breeding blanket will be essential for safety issues and economic sustainability.
