Rationale and method for design of DEMO WCLL breeding blanket poloidal segmentation

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2017
Abstract One of the most critical components in the design of DEMO Power Plant is the Breeding Blanket. Currently, four candidates are investigated as options for DEMO. One of these is the Water Coolant Lithium Lead Breeding Blanket. A new concept design has been proposed and investigated in 2015.

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

Fusion 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).

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

Fusion 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 ...

On the effects of the Double-Walled Tubes lay-out on the DEMO WCLL breeding blanket module thermal behavior

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2019
Abstract The EU-DEMO Water-Cooled Lithium Lead Breeding Blanket (WCLL BB) concept foresees liquid Pb-15.7Li eutectic alloy as breeder and neutron multiplier, whereas pressurized subcooled water as coolant, with operative conditions typical of the PWR fission reactors (temperature in the range of 295–328 °C and pressure of 15.5 MPa).

Influence of hydrogen trapping on WCLL breeding blanket performances

Nuclear 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

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

Fusion 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

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.

MHD and heat transfer analyses in PbLi radial channels for the EUROfusion WCLL breeding blanket

2019
The Water Cooled Lithium Lead (WCLL) breeding blanket concept is the one of the PbLi-based concepts under development within the framework of the EUROfusion project. This concept is characterized by cooling the PbLi using water tubes embedded in the PbLi flow.
