One- and two-dimensional heating analyses of fusion synfuel blankets

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6227184
Comparisons between one- and two-dimensional neutronics and heating analyses were performed on a Brookhaven designed fusion reactor blanket featuring synthetic fuel production. In this two temperature region blanket design, the structural shell is stainless steel. The interior of the module is a packed ball of high temperature ceramic material. The low temperature shell and the high temperature ceramic interior are separately cooled. Process steam (approx. 1500/sup 0/C) is then produced in the ceramic core for the producion of H/sub 2/ and H/sub 2/-based synthetic fuels by a high temperature electrolysis (HTE) process.
