The tritium confinement performance of the designed irradiation capsule was evaluated for the case where tritium was produced by loading Li compound into GTHTR300. Calculation of tritium outflow from the irradiation capsule was performed taking into account the nuclear heat generation of the $$^{6}$$Li(n,$$alpha$$)T reaction in addition to the core temperature. As a result, by taking into account nuclear heat, the outflow of T was reduced by 15% from the previous calculation results, and the confinement performance was improved.
