Design/Manufacturing of Test Blanket Module (TBM), TBM test for demonstration of major functions of blanket are one of the most important subjects which are closely related with Design/Manufacturing of blanket in prototype reactor. In addition to that it is necessary to investigate the design which can cover load condition of prototype reactor. Unfortunately, however, the examination concerning the load condition of prototype reactor was still insufficient. In present study, we focused on pressure rise in blanket box as well as increase of decay heat under In Box LOCA. The characteristics of thermal structural response of blanket was investigated. Based on the results we proposed the design which can handle the conditions of prototype reactor.
