“…6,7,10 Localized tritium inventory models have also undergone more rigorous modeling to understand and predict the inventories and flow rates inside single fuel cycle components. Such localized models have been applied to the breeding blanket, [14][15][16][17] a variety of relevant PFC tritium retention processes, [18][19][20] and the Isotope Separation System 11~I SS!. Great improvements in modeling~dynamic and steady state!…”

Tritium behavior in ceramic breeder blankets is a key design issue for this class of blanket because of its impact on safety and fuel self-sufficiency. Over the past 10-15 years, substantial theoretical and experimental efforts have been dedicated worldwide to develop a better understanding of tritium transport in ceramic breeders. Models that are available today seem to cover reasonably well all the key physical transport and trapping mechanisms. They have allowed for reasonable interpretation and reproduction of experimental data and have helped in pointing out deficiencies in material property data base, in providing guidance for future experiments, and in analyzing blanket tritium behavior. This paper highlights the progress in tritium modeling over the last decade. Key tritium transport mechanisms are briefly described along with the more recent and sophisticated model calibration and validation discussed. Finally, example applications to blanket cases are shown as illustration of progress in the prediction of ceramic breeder blanket tritium inventory. models developed to help understand them.
