Assessments of Tritium-Breeding Requirements and Breeding Potential for the STARFIRE/DEMO Design

摘要

This paper presents assessments of tritium-breeding requirements and breeding potential for the STARFIRE/DEMO design. The assessment of breeding requirement is described based on two design considerations; i.e.: (1) tritium inventory and doubling requirement; and (2) computational uncertainties associated with the breeding calculation. The lithium-containing materials considered include: solid Li sub 2 O and LiAlO sub 2 and liquid lithium and 17 Li-83Pb. (ERA citation 08:034923)
