Abstract:Tritium permeation through Breeding Blanket and Steam Generator heat transfer areas is a crucial aspect for the design of the next generation DEMO fusion power plants. Tritium is generated inside the breeder, dissolves in and permeates through materials, thus leading to a potential hazard for the environment. For this reason it is important to carry out the tritium migration analysis for a specific DEMO blanket configuration in order to predict the released amount of tritium during the plant operation.
