Thermo-hydraulic analysis for CN HCCB TBM regarding ITER new baseline scenario
Demonstration of tritium breeding blanket technique is one of the engineering goal of International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER). Among the different blanket concepts, China decided to develop Helium-cooled Ceramic-Breeder Test Blanket Module (HCCB TBM) and tested in ITER specific TBM port. Currently CN HCCB TBM design is under preliminary design (PD) phase. In 2023, regarding some engineering and technical issues, ITER proposed to modify previous baseline scenario, with less than 1% of total neutron fluence in DT-1 phase, and reduced plasma pulse parameters. Regarding the testing goals of TBM programme, additional electrical heater was proposed to put inside TBM module, so as to achieve relatively high temperature for tritium release. In this paper, steady-state and transient thermo-hydraulic analysis was performed for HCCB TBM typical component, and the overall temperature distribution was achieved, which will be input for structural analysis and dynamic tritium transport analysis in the next step.
