Geometric Optimization of Electrically Coupled Liquid Metal Manifolds for WCLL Blankets

Leo Bühler,
Chiara Mistrangelo

Abstract: A number of previous theoretical and experimental studies for helium-cooled or water-cooled lead lithium (WCLL) blankets show that the major fraction of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) pressure drop in the breeder flow originates from manifolds that distribute and collect the liquid metal into and from the breeder units (BUs). Moreover, those studies revealed that without a proper design of the manifolds, the flow partitioning among breeder units would be strongly nonuniform along the poloidal direction. In the pres… Show more
