Concept development and candidate technologies selection for the DEMO–FNS fuel cycle systems

Abstract: Within the framework of activities on a pilot industrial hybrid reactor (pilot hybrid plant-PHP) development, the DEMO–FNS fusion neutron source is being designed in Russia. Russian fusion and fission community considers it as the main facility developing prospective nuclear technologies, which should update the results of the ITER researches in the field of physics and control of burning plasma. Progress in the development of the plant and simulations of the fusion fuel cycle allows starting the engineering d… Show more

“…In the described calculations, the parameters of injection of tritium pellets were chosen to provide the given ratio nD+:nT+ = 1:1, i.e., the fraction of tritium in the core plasma is fcore T = 0.5, Injection parameters and source profiles are discussed in detail in Section 3.3. For the fueling of DEMO-FNS, deuterium and tritium pellets are considered, which can be introduced separately or by using the same injection system [21,22]. In the absence of forced isotope content control in the divertor plasma by controlled gas puffing (f div T = f core T ), the fraction of tritium in the plasma is determined mainly by the ratio of the flows S pel T and S pel D .…”

“…However, in the majority of the FC components, there will be a correlation between flows in the FC and the hydrogen isotopes inventory in them. For this reason, during simulations by the FC-FNS code, for each separate set of plasma parameters, flows in FC and fuel component inventories are calculated [22].…”

“…Owing to the design requirements of a fusion reactor for rapid fueling and accurate isotopic composition, major exhaust gases are processed through the TEP and SDS while the remaining gases are allowed to transfer to the ISS for separation of deuterium and tritium. To this end, the SDS equipped with metal hydride getter beds is designed to achieve the rapid storage of unreacted DT gas and the gas delivery with controllable composition 10,11 . Nevertheless, the precise control of fuel D/T ratio is always disturbed by the prominent hydrogen isotope effect that originates from the isotopic affinity difference between gas and solid phases 12 .…”
