Design of auxiliary system for the dual functional lithium-lead test blanket module in ITER

摘要

LiPb auxiliary system is an important external loop equipment of test blanket module (TBM) for liquid LiPb blanket design. According to the requirement of testing strategy of DFLL (dual functional lithium lead) TBM, which could demonstrate the technology of the SLL (single-coolant lithium lead) and the DLL (dual-coolant lithium lead) blankets, a conceptual design of the LiPb ancillary system is done, which could serve to achieve the dual functions. The auxiliary system can be used to achieve the recovery of tritium, heat rejection, monitoring of impurity in LiPb, LiPb purification and so on. It consists of detritiation unit, LiPb to He heat exchanger, plugging indicator, LiPb purification system and pumping system, etc.
