“…The low-activation ferritic steel FS [2], F82H, is used as the structural material. To thermally isolate the relatively high temperature Pb-17Li breeder from the FW region, a SiC flow channel insert (FCI) is used as a linear in all the LiPb channels and it also acts as an electrical insulator to mitigate MHD effects.…”

Abstract-The effects of the inclusion of the SiC flow channel insert (FCI) in a dual-coolant lithium-lead (DCLL) blanket placed in a representative Demo reactor on various key neutronics parameters are studied. These parameters are: tritium production ratio (TBR), power multiplication (PM), profiles of nuclear heating, peak damage parameters (dpa, helium and hydrogen production rates) in the structure, vacuum vessel and shield, peak heating rate and fast neutron fluence in the TF coils. Various thicknesses and density factors of the FCI are considered. These effects are examined in both radial and toroidal direction by 1-D and 2-D models.

“…Two types of steel were considered; the austenitic steel 316SS and the low activation ferritic steel F82H. 11 The shield radiation damage parameters were determined at the location with highest neutron wall loading (45°polar angle and 90 cm thick blanket) and at the location with thinnest blanket (85°polar angle and 75 cm thick blanket). Damage parameters are slightly higher at 85°polar angle.…”

A blanket concept made of SiCfISiC composite and utilizing Flibe as coolant and tritium breeder has been developed and integrated with the magnetic intervention system. To achieve tritium self-sufficiency, a 1 cm thick Be insert is utilized in the first wall coolant channel. All magnet, vacuum vessel, and personnel shielding requirements can be satisfied. The nuclear performance parameters of this blanket were compared to those of a lithium-lead blanket in two chamber core configurations. Because of the lighter blanket and shield weight that needs to be supported, the higher thermal power, and the lower electrical conductivity, the Flibe blanket option is particularly well suited for a laser fusion power plant with magnetic intervention.
