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

open access: yesFusion 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.

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

open access: yesFusion 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: yesFusion 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: yesFusion 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)

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

open access: yes, 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.

Tritium transport model at breeder unit level for HCLL breeding blanket [PDF]

open access: yesFusion 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.

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

open access: yes, 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.
