Modeling a Hypothetical Fusion Blanket Design Using MELCOR-TMAP
- Idaho National Laboratory
MELCOR (not an acronym) is a nuclear safety code developed by Sandia National Laboratories for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Idaho National Laboratory collaborates with Sandia to maintain and develop a version of MELCOR specifically for fusion device applications. Most recently, the tritium migration analysis program (TMAP) has been incorporated into MELCOR for fusion, in a version called MELCOR-TMAP. We show the results applying MELCOR-TMAP to model steady-state inventory and tritium retention in a liquid immersion blanket design for a hypothetical fusion device under steady-state operation.
