As the EU DEMO reactor will act as a ComponentTest Facility for the breeding blanket (BB), it is foreseen that the different BB concepts will be tested throughout the plant's lifetime. The maintenance of all the in-vessel components (IVCs), as for all D-T fusion machines, must be carried out employing remote handling (RH) technology, as the structural materials will be activated by the neutrons. The maintained segment and possibly other nearby segments cannot be actively cooled and will heat up due to the decay heat. For these reasons, alternative cooling strategies need thus to be investigated to ensure that the BB segment will cool down within the limits required by the RH in a reasonable amount of time. In the present work, two possible cooling options are investigated for the case of the Water-Cooled Lithium-Lead BB concept. One is based on the passive cool-down by natural convection of the BB segments, whereas the second one relies on a forcing flow of cool air on the BB surfaces. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach has been used to study the different options for performing transient analyses through the Star-CCM+ commercial code.
