Tritium represents a hazard due to its radioactivity and migration properties. Because of these difficulties, ITER, the largest fusion experiment so far, relies on a conservative static procedure to monitor the tritium inventory. Future commercial fusion plants can avoid operation halts if a dynamic monitoring strategy proves itself valid. Tritium plant models have been developed for this kind of monitoring and analysis task, but sensor accuracy and reliability are an issue still to be addressed, and the path to dynamic monitoring remains unclear. The present work shows the modeling procedure of the Tokamak Exhaust Processing system in a commercial simulator, Aspen HYSYS, to reproduce the inventories, streams, process conditions, and compositions of this subsystem during operation. The model is verified in a steady-state scenario using data from the available literature. A demonstration of such a tritium plant subsystem shows meaningful value for several reasons. First, this process has not been modeled before in commercial dynamic simulators, which are typically used in the process industry. It will also allow new stakeholders to participate in future fusion-related projects. Second, it will play a key role in industry-like tritium process monitoring, in which the new model will act as a digital twin of the plant. Data-driven diagnostics can be fueled by model data, helping engineers to generate additional data that could otherwise be expensive to get directly from the plant. For these reasons, models will represent an essential part of a dynamic monitoring system, necessary for feasible fusion projects.Keywords: Tritium processingtokamak exhaust processingdynamic modelingAspen HYSYSisotopic database AcronymsADS:=Atmosphere Detritiation SystemANS:=Analytical SystemDF:=Decontamination FactorDS:=Detritiation SystemGDC:=Glow Discharge CleaningISS:=Isotope Separation SystemNBI:=Neutral Beam InjectorPERMCAT:=PERMeator CATalytic reactorPI:=proportional-integralSDS:=Storage and Delivery SystemSRK:=Soave-Redlich-KwongTEP:=Tokamak Exhaust ProcessingTLK:=Tritium Laboratory KarlsruheVDS:=Vent Detritiation SystemWDS:=Water Detritiation SystemDisclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notesa DF is defined for the TEP system as the ratio between input tritium flow rate to output tritium flow rate.[Citation10]Additional informationFundingThis work has been possible thanks to co-funding of the Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico Industrial of the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation [IDI-20200750] and to the Industrial Doctorates Plan of the Government of Catalonia [2018 DI 0048].","PeriodicalId":12626,"journal":{"name":"Fusion Science and Technology","volume":"28 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135265668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scope of its applications includes the synthesis of powders for new types of catalysts, the formation and doping of ceramics, and other applications. We have previously demonstrated that in specific conditions, chain oscillatory reactions can be initialized in the reactor by powerful microwave pulses of the gyrotron in mixtures of metal and dielectric powders, resulting in the formation of microdispersed materials with controllable physical and chemical properties.In such reactions, initiated in mixtures of Ti and B, BN powders in a series of particle samples with a developed surface have been obtained. The resulting materials have a heterogeneous composition and size distribution controlled by the synthesis conditions. Thus, the obtained structures exhibit repeatable characteristics attractive for numerous applications, from catalytic particle formation and reinforcement additives to biomedical materials. In order to analyze the hazardless of the materials, cytotoxicity tests were necessary.In this work, the methods for such an analysis have been applied. The study of the obtained samples for cytotoxicity against human cells (lines HEK293T, MCF7, A549, VA13) showed toxic effects only at concentrations of tens of mg/L and the absence of detectable toxic effects in bacterial system (E. coli).

Modal analysis, a powerful tool, was used to evaluate the structural dynamic characteristics, such as frequency and mode shape. In addition, the CFETR VV has three different temperature conditions: room temperature (20°C), normal operation temperature (100°C), and baking temperature (200°C).In this paper, in order to investigate the influence of such different temperature conditions to the dynamic behavior of the VV, three independent finite element analysis with the same modal analysis method were performed. According to analysis results, there are obvious thermal effects on the dynamic behavior, such as nature frequency and mode shape, among the different temperature cases for the CFETR VV. Moreover, the results show that the natural frequency for each order decreases as the temperature increases, and the mode shape of the VV also changed with temperature.Keywords: CFETRvacuum vesselfinite elementmodal analysisthermal effect AcknowledgmentsThe authors are grateful to those who have given helpful advice.

Wall conditioning of the MT-II vacuum vessel (VV) is an essential step to achieve a good quality vacuum for plasma experiments. This study presents an overview of the wall-conditioning techniques implemented on the MT-II VV, including baking and glow discharge cleaning (GDC). Prior to wall conditioning, the system is checked via a helium leak test machine and residual gas analyzer (RGA) to identify and remove leaks. The VV walls are baked at ~180 °C to get rapid desorption of water vapors and other impurities. After the baking process, the partial pressure of most of the carbon- and oxygen-containing impurities is reduced. In particular, the partial pressure of water vapors is reduced by 93%. Consequently, the total leak and outgassing rate is significantly reduced. To further improve the vacuum condition in the vessel, hydrogen GDC is carried out. The fill hydrogen pressure and anode voltage are optimized to get a stable glow discharge. The RGA scan shows that GDC reduces the partial pressure of H2O, O2, and CO2 by 57%, 63%, and 51%, respectively. The results signify that baking and GDC are effective techniques for wall conditioning of the MT-II VV.Keywords: MT-II tokamakbakingglow discharge cleaningleak rateresidual gas analyzer Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationFundingThis project was partially supported by a grant-in-aid from the Planning Commission, Government of Pakistan, and the International Atomic Energy Agency coordinated research project (CRP-F13018) under research grant PAK-22840.","PeriodicalId":12626,"journal":{"name":"Fusion Science and Technology","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134911091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
