Tritium transport model at breeder unit level for HCLL breeding blanket

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2019
Abstract The Helium-Cooled Lithium Lead (HCLL) breeding blanket is one of the European blanket designs proposed for DEMO reactor. A tritium transport model is fundamental for the correct assessment of both design and safety, in order to guarantee tritium self-sufficiency and to characterize tritium concentrations, inventories and losses.

Tritium transport model at the minimal functional unit level for HCLL and WCLL breeding blankets of DEMO

Fusion Engineering and Design, 2018
Abstract The Helium-Cooled Lithium-Lead (HCLL) and Water-Cooled Lithium-Lead (WCLL) Breeding Blankets are two of the four European blanket designs proposed for the DEMO reactor. A tritium transport model inside the blanket is fundamental to assess its preliminary design and safety features. Tritium transport and permeation are complex phenomena to be

Numerical analysis of extreme magnetoconvective phenomena in the WCLL blanket

, 2022
The Water-Cooled Lead-Lithium (WCLL) is one of the breeding blanket concepts currently being developed for implementation in the fusion reactor demonstrator DEMO. The liquid breeder, lead-lithium, is circulated at velocities lower than 1 mm/s to minimize
