Conceptual design on interface between ITER and tritium extraction system of Chinese helium-cooled solid breeder test blanket module

A tritium extraction system (TES) is one of important ancillary systems of the China helium cooled ceramic breeder test blanket module (CN HCCB TBM). The high reliability and availability of TES will be needed for safety operation of circulation and processing of tritium purge gas. Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) and reliability, availability, maintainability, inspectability (RAMI) analysis of the TES should be performed during the design phase according to the CN HCCB TBM plan. Accurate reliability data is required to provide meaningful results for PSA and RAMI analysis. Since there is no TES pipes failure rate data available from fusion operating experiences. Therefore, it is necessary to use the existing pipe operating experiences to calculate component failure rates of the TES pipes. In this paper, the k factor method was used to adjust the failure rates of the TES pipes under the different environments and conditions by combining physics of failure models and a conservative estimation technique. The failure rates of the TES can provide references for the optimization of TES pipes design and data support for PSA and RAMI analysis of the TES.
