Feasibility study on the blanket tritium recovery system using the palladium membrane diffuser

Tritium bred in the solid breeder blanket of a fusion reactor is extracted by passing of a helium sweep gas. Tritium is separated from sweep gas at the blanket tritium recovery system. Palladium membrane diffuser is one of the applicable processes for the blanket tritium recovery system. It is usually applied for hydrogen purification system such as TEP in ITER. However, it has been reported that the rate controlling step changes at lower hydrogen pressure such as the blanket sweep gas condition, and discussion about application for the blanket sweep gas condition is not enough. Recently, conceptual design of the demonstration reactor, named "DEMO2001", has been proposed from JAERI. In this report, the application of the Pd diffuser for the blanket sweep gas condition is discussed based on the condition of DEMO 2001.

Blanket-plasma interaction is important for plasma performance enhancement and reliability of first-wall/ blanket. Typical examples are harminization of wall stabilization and reduction of EM force during current quench, error field effect by ferritic steel, neutral-wall interaction under wall saturation, etc. JAERI reactor studies, JT-60U and JFT-2M results on this topics will be described.

Neutron shielding and blanket neutronics study on low aspect ratio tokamak reactor

Yamauchi, Michinori*; Nishitani, Takeo; Nishio, Satoshi

Denki Gakkai Rombunshi, A, 125(11), p.943 - 946, 2005/11

Considering the geometrical characteristics of tokamak reactors with low aspect ratio, a basic neutronics strategy was derived to construct the inboard structure mainly for neutron shielding and produce enough tritium in the outboard blanket. The designs for optimal inboard shield were surveyed and necessary thickness was estimated to make the neutron flux low enough on the super-conducting magnet. In addition, the outer blanket designs were studied to attain the tritium breeding ratio (TBR) large enough for a self-sustaining fusion reactor on the basis of the advanced fusion reactor materials.

International benchmark activity of tritium measurement of blanket neutronics

Ochiai, Kentaro; Verzilov, Y. M.; Nishitani, Takeo; Batistoni, P.*; Seidel, K.*

Fusion Science and Technology, 48(1), p.378 - 381, 2005/07

 Times Cited Count:7 Percentile:44.40(Nuclear Science & Technology)

To evaluate the measurement accuracy of the tritium production from $$^{6}$$LiLi(n,t)$$^{4}$$He reactions, an international benchmark program was initiated again under the frame work of an IEA fusion neutronics subtask from 2003. JAERI, ENEA and Technical University of Dresden (TUD) are participating in the activity. This program consists of the calibration of the tritium measurement systems and the verification of the measurement accuracies of the tritium production from $$^{7}$$Li(n,nt)$$^{4}$$He and $$^{6}$$LiLi(n,t)$$^{4}$$He reactions. We have completed the calibration of the measurement system with tritium standard water (HTO) and blind HTO samples. From the results, the scattering of the calibration was within 1.5 %.

Tritium recovery from solid breeder blanket by water vapor addition to helium sweep gas

Kawamura, Yoshinori; Iwai, Yasunori; Nakamura, Hirofumi; Hayashi, Takumi; Yamanishi, Toshihiko; Nishi, Masataka

Adding some amount of hydrogen to the helium sweep gas is effective for tritium extraction from blanket, but it causes permeation of tritium to a cooling system. In the design study of a demonstration reactor in JAERI, tritium leakage has been estimated to be about 20% of bred tritium under typical sweep gas conditions. If these tritiums are recovered under the ITER-WDS condition, tritium leakage limitation has to be less than 0.3% of typical case. Water vapor addition to the sweep gas is effective not only for blanket tritium extraction but also for permeation prevention. The reaction rate of isotope exchange is larger than the case of H$$_2$$, and the equilibrium constant is also expected to be about 1.0. When the H/T ratio is 100, tritium inventory of breeder material is larger than the case of H$$_2$$ addition. However it is not so large. In case of H$$_2$$O sweep, separation of tritiated water from helium seems to be easyer, but the process that changes HTO to HT is necessary.

The Fusion Council of Japan has established the long-term research and development program of the blanket in 1999. In the program, the solid breeder blanket was selected as the primary candidate blanket of the fusion power demonstration plant in Japan. In the program, Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) has been nominated as a leading institute of the development of solid breeder blankets, in collaboration with universities, for the near term power demonstration plant, while, universities including National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) are assigned mainly to develop advanced blankets for longer term power plant development. In the long term research and development program, ITER blanket module testing is identified as the most important milestone, by which integrity of candidate blanket concepts and structures are evaluated. In Japan, universities, NIFS and JAERI cover a variety of types of blanket development. This paper presents a plan and strategy for ITER blanket module testing in Japan.

Development of fabrication technology of ITER shielding blanket

Enoeda, Mikio

Koon Gakkai-Shi, 30(5), p.256 - 262, 2004/09

Fabrication technologies for ITER in-vessel components, especially the shielding blanket with the separable first wall panel has been developed. Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) has been applied to the bonding of Cu-alloy/stainless steel and beryllium/Cu-alloy. First wall mock-ups fabricated by using HIP were tested under high heat fluxes and showed sufficient heat removal and thermal fatigue performance. Water jet and electrical discharge machining have been applied to manufacture slots into the first wall panel and the shield block. With these technologies, a first wall panel prototype and a shielding block 1/2 mock-up were successfully fabricated.
