“…During operation, lithium will undergo transmutation to generate tritium for the plasma and so the material will be increasingly Li deficient as it ages; Li burn-up may reach several 10s of % during a typical blanket lifetime [15]. Therefore, it is important to be able predict the thermal conductivity of the titanate across a wide stoichiometric range.…”

“…This can represent a serious storage (T excess) or availability (T shortage) problem. This variation may very easily arise from design tools limitations, or by lithium burn-up [118]. Thus, the fine tuning of the TBR (<1%) is a must for a blanket design.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
