    Notes: Abstract Monte Carlo calculations on the tritium breeding ratio in the blanket and the heating rate in the first wall were carried out for moving ring reactor, KARIN-1. The blanket adopted in this calculation consists of a 2-cm thick silicon carbide (SiC) first wall, a 25-cm thick lithium (Li) layer, and a 10-cm thick lithium oxide (Li2O) layer. It was found that the tritium breeding ratio in the blanket and the heating rate in the first wall are changing cyclically with a 1 s period. The maximum tritium breeding ratio obtained is 1.12, the minimum is 1.01, and the average value over a 1 s period is 1.10. As for the heating rate at the center of the burning section, the maximum is ∼26 W/cc, the minimum ∼10 W/cc, the average ∼ 15 W/cc, and the ratio of the maximum to the minimum is ∼2.6. The corresponding values at the entrance of the burning section are ∼24 W/cc, ∼4 W/cc, ∼12 W/cc, and ∼6.7, respectively. These results provide the basic information for thermal and mechanical design of the reactor system.

    Notes: Abstract A neutronic analysis of the laser-driven inertial-confinement fusion reactor SENRI-I is presented. Three-dimensional Monte Carlo calculations were performed to examine the effects of laser beam ports on the flux distribution, tritium breeding ratio, thermal energy deposition in the blanket, and radiation streaming. A Monte Carlo code was also used for the time-dependent radiation-damage analysis accounting for the time of the flight spread of neutrons and the results are compared to the analysis for the HIBALL design. Induced radioactivity was estimated, based on the one-dimensional transport calculation and depletion analysis. The calculated results reveal the advantages of the SENRI-I design with a thick Li layer compared to other reactor systems employing a dry-wall scheme.

    Notes: Abstract Nuclear analysis was carried out for the heliotron-H fusion power reactor employing anl=2 helical heliotron field. The neutronics aspects examined were (a) tritium breeding capability, (b) shielding effectiveness for the superconducting magnet (SCM), and (c) induced activity after shutdown. In this reactor design of the heliotron-H, the space available for the blanket and shield is limited due to the reactor geometry. Thus, some parametric survey calculations were performed to satisfy the design requirements. The nucleonic design features of the heliotron-H are as follows. An adequate tritium breeding ratio of 1.17 is obtained when a 10-cm thick Pb neutron multiplier and a 40-cm thick Li2O breeding blanket are used. In this case, the total nuclear energy deposition is 16.10 MeV per 14.06 MeV incident neutron. The performance of the SCM is assured during ∼2 yr of continuous operation using a 20-cm thick tungsten shield. Biological dose rate behind the SCM at 1 day after shutdown is too high for hands-on maintenance.

    Notes: Abstract Neutronic calculations were performed to optimize the SENRI blanket in terms of energy multiplication as well as tritium breeding ratio. The blanket employs a thick (∼ 64-cm) Li layer as breeder/coolant. Three approaches were taken here to achieve the goal: (1) reduction of6Li in the lithium, (ii) replacement of the Li layer by a molten-salt (flibe) layer, and (iii) shipment of excess tritium to a nonbreeding blanket. It was found that the excess tritium produced in the SENRI blanket could be used effectively to obtain additional power by fueling a nonbreeding D-T reactor.
